wramas Posted September 21, 2004 Report Share Posted September 21, 2004 Like Xp when releasing and renewing ip address syntax goes like this c:\>ipconfig /release ---->releases ip c:\>ipconfig /renew ------> renew ip What is the ipconfig release/renew equivalent in mandrake? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phunni Posted September 21, 2004 Report Share Posted September 21, 2004 Just stopping and restarting the network service will achieve the same thing: /etc/init.d/network stop and /etc/init.d/network start or indeed: /etc/init.d/network restart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nocturnes Posted September 21, 2004 Report Share Posted September 21, 2004 As above, or you can use the following to stop and restart ifdown xxxZ where xxx is the interface (eg ppp opr eth) and Z is the number of said interface (eg 0, 1, 2 etc) To restart it ifup xxxZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papaschtroumpf Posted September 23, 2004 Report Share Posted September 23, 2004 (edited) ifconfig eth0 down ifconfig eth0 up :P restarting the whole networking service is a little drastic if you have more than one interface.

wramas Posted September 25, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2004 How about net send in xp, what will be the equivalent code in mandrake linux? :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fissy Posted September 25, 2004 Report Share Posted September 25, 2004 net send is part of windows file sharing, and i think you can do it with linux's implementation of windows file sharing - samba. There are better ways though, like jabber ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
