Have following setup:

Two computers, one runs Windows XP the other Fedora Readhat Core 1. Both computers work behind a router to a DSL modem. This set up works well.

Attempted to upgrade to Fedora Redhat 2. How Windows XP still accesses the internet but Fedora 2 will not. Router is assigning IP addresses properly (Checked Windows IP Config and Fedora IFconfig files to be sure router was assigning IP address correctly).

Seems problem is in the Fedora 2 set up. possibly a package missing. ethO is there.

Aslo, ran media check on all redhat CDs before use. All checked good. Installation went smooth with no errors.

I am at a loss to figure why Fedora 1 works but Fedora 2 won't.

Can anybody suggest some things I might check, like a service that might be missing when loading Fedora 2 that keeps Mozilla from working.

Are you using DHCP or manual assigning to configure your network card?

If you're not using DHCP, check you've set your gateway right.

Second question:

Is the default gateway the one set by the DSL modem?

Yru

It is the internal IP address of the router (192.168.1.1 or similar depending on the router). Is this a combo or seperate units? Check the router manual.

Still cannot get the Linux (Fedora Core 1) on my second computer to operate through router D-link, model DI 604, 4 port Ethernet Broadband Router(LAN cable connected to Qwest Actiontex, Model GT701-WG modem) to local Internet provider. Therefore, I will explain the Linux Network Fedora Core 1 Configuration setup procedure I must follow and where I have questions.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Edit Interface eth0

Configure eth0 - D-Link System Inc|RTL8139 Ethernet

I go to EDIT and DESELECT, " Configure using DHCP."

I check "Activate on boot."

This requires I enter an IP and NetMask.

QUESTION 1: I do not know where to find the right settings. Are these the IP/Mask of the Router or the ethernet card (NIC), if so how do I find out what numbers are?

Next, I am asked to Set the Host name: (The first setting I have no problem understanding.)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now I am asked to provide Miscellaneous Settings:

Gateway Address:
Primary DNS:
Secondary DNS:
Tertiary DNS:


QUESTION 2 : Which gateway/DNS settings are required;

a. from the D-Link DI-106 4 port LAN router? or

b. from my RTL8139 Ethernet NIC card or

c. From my DSLQwest Actiontec modem?

Listed below is the only source of information I have available:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. From my Windows XP computer which will display the QWest Actiontec information as follows:

Firmware Version:
MAC Address:

WAN

Connection: Connect Disconnect
IP Address:
Subnet Mask:
DNS #1
DNS #2


LAN

IP Address:
Net Mask:
DHCP SERVER: ON (at present time)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. My Windows XP IP Config information:

Adapter Network Bridge:

Connection-specific DNS Suffix .
Address:
Net Mask:
Default Gateway:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. IF Config information from previous setup of Linux Fedora Core 1

etho
inetaddr: Bcast:
Mask:

OTHER DATA (which I believe to irrevalent)

LO data (again I believe not revalent)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have Guide Linux for Dummies but they are vague as to where this data is to come from.

If anyone understands this reply --- PLEASE HELP --- I simply don't know what to do next. Thanks in advance and have a Happy Newyear!
