Ok scoopy, I added the line into fstab. I added it over the removable line (not sure if that is what you wanted me to do) Here is what fstab looks like now /dev/hda6 / ext2 noatime 1 1 none /dev/pts devpts mode=0620 0 0 none /mnt/cdrom supermount dev=/dev/hdc,fs=udf:iso9660,ro,--,iocharset=iso8859-1 0 0 none /mnt/cdrom2 supermount dev=/dev/scd0,fs=udf:iso9660,ro,--,iocharset=iso8859-1 0 0 none /mnt/floppy supermount dev=/dev/fd0,fs=ext2:vfat,--,umask=0,sync,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850 0 0 /dev/hda2 /mnt/windows ntfs ro,iocharset=iso8859-1,umask=0 0 0 none /mnt/zip supermount dev=/dev/sda4,fs=ext2:vfat,--,umask=0,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850 0 0 none /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/hda5 swap swap defaults 0 0 /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usbHD vfat umask=0,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850 0 0 I created usbHD but It is still empty. Did I do something wrong?

aRTee Tried this but kept getting this error And I did make sure I was logged in as root. Gona go try scoopy's suggestions now. Be back shortly.

Here's the error that I get if I try to write anything to the HD Error "Generic Error" while copying. Would you like to continue?
-
Yes, it is fat32. Is the removable mount supposed to stay there even when HD is not connected? That paste is without the HD connected. I know for a fact that there is 25 to 30 gig worth of stuff on that HD. I'm not sure why I can't see it. Can I manualy unmount and manualy remount it to see if that helps anything?
-
I'm not real knowledgeable yet, but I just had a simmilar problem. Check the firewall settings in Mandrake Controll Center. Even though I had dissabled it, when I tried to share connection, it raised up a bugger of a firewall, blocking everything.

Do I need to post /etc/fstab.mdkgiorig also or just /etc/fstab? /dev/hda6 / ext2 noatime 1 1 none /dev/pts devpts mode=0620 0 0 none /mnt/cdrom supermount dev=/dev/hdc,fs=udf:iso9660,ro,--,iocharset=iso8859-1 0 0 none /mnt/cdrom2 supermount dev=/dev/scd0,fs=udf:iso9660,ro,--,iocharset=iso8859-1 0 0 none /mnt/floppy supermount dev=/dev/fd0,fs=ext2:vfat,--,umask=0,sync,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850 0 0 /dev/hda2 /mnt/windows ntfs ro,iocharset=iso8859-1,umask=0 0 0 none /mnt/zip supermount dev=/dev/sda4,fs=ext2:vfat,--,umask=0,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850 0 0 none /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/hda5 swap swap defaults 0 0 none /mnt/removable supermount dev=/dev/sdb1,fs=ext2:vfat,--,codepage=850,iocharset=iso8859-1,kudzu 0 0

Hey, here's one for you guys. I have a USB external HD, formatted for Windows, with 25 to 30 gig of media files. I don't want to copy and reformat that HD because I need it for some work projects (Only Windows at work), but want to access the media files (read/write) from Mandrake. Mandrake recognizes and mounts the drive, but I can't see anything on it. Is there an easy solution, or do I need to break down and buy another external HD?

Dang firewall :lol: See my most recent post. My most recent problem
-
Thanks for your help also jdion81. I was just about to reinstall when you posted yesterday. I appreciate that.
-
Thanks bvc. You know, you change avatars more often than I change socks. New one looks nice.
-
Will you look at that. Another positive from this problem. <--------- I got my first Tux :D
-
Don't ask me how, but I back on the internet in Linux. :D Thanks to all and their suggestions. I learned a lot just trying to fix this problem. Here's what it finaly came down to. I was reviewing all of the suggestions (I was at the end of my rope) and came accross bvc's comment about a firewall. I know I dissabled the thing a couple of weeks ago, but decided to check anyway. When I looked It was set to block everything. Thinking surely this isn't the problem, I turned it off again (no clue how it re activated in the first place). Lo and behold...... I am connected again . Anyway, I just wanted to give a great big thanks to all of you. I love this board. Hopefully I'm learning enough that I can start contributing to the answers and not just the questions :D Thanks again all.

Iphitus, pulled the power (waited for 10 sec. just to be sure), restored power and followed your instructions. No change. That would have been too easy :P . Still stuck.

Looked at my post and realized it looked like crap. Lemmie try that again except with"/" representing the division in collumns. Destination / Gateway / Genmask / Flags / Metric / Ref / Use / Iface default / 209.34.26.254 / 255.255.255.0 / UG / 0 / 0 / 0 / eth0 209.34.26.0 / * / 255.255.255.0 / U / 0 / 0 / 0 / eth0 127.0.0.0 / * / 255.0.0.0 / U /0 / 0 / 0 / lo default / 209.34.26.254 / 0.0.0.0 / UG / 0 / 0 / 0 / eth0 Doesn't look too much better. I hope you can see what you need.

Ok, this time I didn't get the "SIOCADDRT:Network is unreachable" error. Here's what I got from route: Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface default 209.34.26.254 255.255.255.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 209.34.26.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 127.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo default 209.34.26.254 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 Ping did not work again. Here's what I got from ifconfig -a: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:c0:a8:87:01:38 inet addr:209.34.26.91 Bcast:209.34.26.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:35 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:42 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:100 RX bytes:4432 (4.3 Kb) TX bytes:5254 (5.1 Kb) Interrupt:9 Base Address:0x1c00 iphitus, I'm going to shut down Win again and log back into Linux so that I can give your suggestion a shot (Dual boot hell ). I be back in a little bit.

I use a dhcp connection. Here are the settings that are working right in windows right now: DNS - 207.70.128.240 Subnet Mask - 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway - 209.34.26.254 DHCP Server - 209.34.26.254 Result SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable Then trying to ping 209.34.30.254 resulted in the standard "Destination Host Unreachable", error. Does this tell you anything? I appreciate all of the help that I am getting on this.
-
Is there a way I can completely remove all internet/network settings and start from scratch? Prefferably without formating and reinstalling Mandrake, but if that is the only way, I've got to get my work computer back.
-
Here's the results from jdion81's suggestions. Took eth0 down and back up Ping 127.0.0.1 PING 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1) 56 (84) bytes of data 64 bytes from 127.0.0.1 : icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.069 ms Ping gateway address given by tech support (209.34.30.254) PING 209.34.30.254 (209.34.30.254) 56 (84) bytes of data From 209.34.26.91 icmp_seq=1 Destination Host Unreachable Ping: sendmsg: operation not permited.

Does this mean anything to you? Please tell me it does. :unsure:

Made the changes. No effect. Rebooted. No effect. Google ping before and after change resulted in the following. ping:unknown host google.com I ran internet wizard again and the changes have been reset. This is officialy my longest lasting Linux problem to date.
-
Drakconf oppened MCC. All settings looked normal. I'm not sure how to ping from console. If you can explain I'll try that also. Computers - it's a love/hate relationship.
-
no luck with your website, linuxbox4you. Also, when i click on the "configure hostname" button in MCC, it displays the correct DNS and Gateway. Any other Ideas?

I learn something new every day. Thanks for pointing those buttons out. I was wondering what they were for. Ok, so I've got a lot of info for you. Here it goes This is what I found: /etc/resolv.conf search txucom.net nameserver 207.70.172.240 nameserver 207.70.128.240 /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 DEVICE=eht0 BOOTPROTO=dhcp ONBOOT=yes HWADDR=00:c0:a8:87:01:38 MII_NOT_SUPPORTED=no DHCP_HOSTNAME=kevins.linux.box.com NEEDHOSTNAME=no ifconfig -a brings up the following: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:C0:A8:87:01:38 inet addr:209.34.26.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU: 1500 Metric:1 RX packets:31 errors:0 Dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:44 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:100 lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:72 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:72 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:4694 (4.5 Kb) TX bytes:4694 (4.5 Kb) And last, when I run ifup eth0 I get this: determining IP information for eth0.... done Please tell me that you know what's going on.

Crap, just noticed that the route output got all run together. Here it is again except with "/" symbolizing the division in collumns. destination / gateway / genmask / flags / metric / ref / use / iface 209.34.26.0 / * / 255.255.255.0 / u / 0 / 0 / 0 / eth0 127.0.0.0 / * / 255.0.0.0 / u / 0 / 0 / 0 / lo efault / 209.34.26.254 / 0.0.0.0 / ug / 0 / 0 / 0 / eth0 This doesn't look much better, but maybe you can understand it.
-
You're probably right bvc :lol: , I thought that also, so I tried entering the gateway. No luck. Sorry about the last post. I got so frustrated, I forgot to post the output of route. It reads as follows: (sorry for the format - couldn't paste) Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 209.34.26.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 127.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo default 209.34.26.254 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 as for iconfig -a, I get the following error: -bash: iconfig: command not found My setup - just my home computer (dual boot - MS and MDK), my DSL modem (external) and my LAN card (internal). No other computers involved. Hope this helps.

Ok, reinstalled (upgrade not the full install) with no luck. Can't figure out what's going on. No one I've talked to can tell me what's happening either. When I look at the settings, they all match up. I would hate to format and restart the whole process, but that's quickly what I'm comming to. It's either that or go back to Windows........ Nah, that's not really an option :P Anyway, If anyone has experienced this or might know where I can begin to find some answers, please let me know.
