nothing.
as root: 1) in MDK control panel, entered net section, then, launched asisstant, followed your instruction BUT eth0 still remains DOWN. 2) in NETCONFIG, tried to set domains, first IP & secondo IP (thaught they were DNS fisrt & second), once i clicked on ACCEPT, and apply changes, it appeared me a log message: DHCPD service not active, ACTIVATING: /etc/rc5.d/s65DHCPD start STARTING FAILED, gets back 1 etc/s90postresql start STARTING FAILED. all the dhcp services have been installed, in software installation NOTHING called DHCP & nothing woch contained DHCP words is missing in my installation! eth0 continues to be un-activable!!! i don't know what to do. eth0 is not reachable.... :( |
Half the problem here lyllo is that we want you to type commands in a console and you keep poking around in the mandrake control center.
I think at this stage that you need to try a different card in this box to rule out a hardware problem, at the very least start moving the card you have to a few different slots. |
if you are having trouble with the console commands, you might want to use this as a reference so that you can follow the advice you are receiving. see detailed dhcp configuration instructions at
http://www.linuxheadquarters.com/how...rkconfig.shtml |
it is a cool expression "poking"...
but the boss MasterC, showed off a graphical procedure from MDK CC!!!!! i'll try using console config, but the eth0 DOWN problem still remains! |
welll i've tryed to follow the procedure suggeted in the page you gave me USING JUST THE CONSOLE.
1) doing /etc/modules.conf recieved a permission denied message, but opening the module by KATE, i've found the line ALIAS ETH0 8139too WERE PRESENT 2) doing /sbin/lsmod 81399too [eth0] mii [8139too] lines found 3) edited file /etc/sysconfig/network.-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 in this way: DEVICE= eth0 USERCTL=no ONBOOT=yes BOOTPROTO=dhcp BRADCAST= NETWORK= NETMASK= IPADDR= 4) eddited /etc/sysconfig/network in this way: NETWORKING=yes HOSTNAME= FORWARD_IPV4=yes GATEWAYDEV= GATEWAY= 5) doing /etc/rc.d/initd/network restart these lines appeareed: starting forwardipv4 OK starting eth0..... Determining I address information FAILED. now? :( |
:newbie:
Hi all, I have a similar problem. Here's my configuration: Mandrake 9.0 Shuttle SS51G with an onboard realtek 8100B I have a computer that serves as gateway (Mandrake 9.0 too), connected to an ethernet DSL modem (with ppoe). Connection works fine on the gateway and is shared with other computers. Now, back to the Shuttle and the realtek NIC. This is reconized as a RTL-8139, with module 8139too. I configure this with an fixed IP, DNS of my provider, gateway adress and appropriate subnet. If I ping my gateway or other computer, no pong, Destination Host Unreachable. I tried modprobe 8139too: no error messages lsmod: 8139too | 14472 | 1 |(autoclean) [8139too]. dhcpcd eth0: take a long time, with no error messages, but if I start an ifconfig after this command, I only have the loopback address. The saddest thing (after that it works on window$) is that I have a status "up" for my NIC in Mandrake Control Centre, but no pong anymore. The 8139too driver I use is version 1.13. Is there anything else I can send to help you to help us? Thanks :) |
Well it works for me!
I found a reply in the mandrake support. http://www.mandrakeexpert.com/showarchive.php?arc=44518 try this: reboot the computer on lilo screen, press esc to go to console mode. There, type linux noapic [enter] once it boots, log on and restart the connection wizard in the mandrake control centre to start from zero your network configuration. Then check if you're connected. It seems that's a time out with a certain NETDEV WATCHDOG or interruption configuration. I'll get more information about that later. If it works, you have to add "noapic" to the append section in the lilo.conf file. Hope it helps |

Once you are booted up, go to a console switch to root (using su - )and type: ifconfig Now please post exactly what that says (to paste from the console to here, highlight the text to be pasted, then click inside your reply box on this website with either a middle button, the scroll button, or by pressing both side buttons down at the same time). After that, type this: dhcpcd eth0 And post exactly what that returns. And one more time now, type: ifconfig And post exactly what that shows. :) Don't worry, and don't get frustrated, these guys are experts. We will walk you through this, one step at a time, and eventually (if it's not a hardware problem, even then, we will be able to get it narrowed down) get it worked out. And just so you know, technically, so far in this thread, the boss is Aussie ;) Cool |
regarding the console stuff:
1. regarding your modules, you probably just forgot to invoke a display command or text editor. try either : cat /etc/modules.conf or vi /etc/modules.conf (if you see your module, just type hit ESC and type q! and hit enter/return] 2. regarding the ifconfig command, make it easy on yourself. make a .txt file of the command's output by typing ifconfig > net.txt a. cd /root (insert a floppy disk) b. mount /mnt/floppy c. cp net.txt /mnt/floppy net.txt d. umount floppy eject the floppy and put it in your internet connected machine and copy and past the net.txt file back here. 3. also, you can try mii-tool > diagnostic.txt (post this back here too) hope this eases your way.. there are way more interesting things to focus on besides configuring nics. |

Lyllo, please do "lspci -v" as root and post the section that details your eth0 "SIS(something i don't remeber)" device. I'm specificly interested in the bit that you don't remember.

address. Question: Does your xDSL provider use PPPoE or DHCP? DHCP (or also known as bootps) is very easy, and I don't think this is what you have, otherwise I think you would have been done. Type in a console (as root): [hostname]$ /sbin/ifup eth0 You will probable see something like ... unable to determine ip... or something like that. for PPPoE: not much help here from me. I know the technology, but have never set it up. I also know my d-link router/switch supports it. One way to know is that your should have received a username/passwd from your ISP. Cheers, Pete |
here's what i get...

Ok, shot in the dark while Aussie figures out the right way ;)
Try this: ifconfig eth0 down ifconfig eth1 down dhcpcd eth1 Then type: ifconfig And now, show us what that pulls up. :) Cool |
OK, now I want to see your /etc/modules.conf.
