MottS Posted June 26, 2003 Report Share Posted June 26, 2003 If you don't see an eth0 section in 'ifconfig' then your network card isn't up and runnning. Look at my 'ifconfig' gd@localhost gd $ su Password: root@localhost gd # ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:50:BA:B4:00:3E inet addr:192.168.1.100 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 UP BROADCAST NOTRAILERS RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:725 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:850 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:100 RX bytes:280078 (273.5 Kb) TX bytes:137106 (133.8 Kb) Interrupt:11 Base address:0xbf00 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:4 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:4 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:200 (200.0 b) TX bytes:200 (200.0 b) You can turn your network card on (using dhcp protocol) by typing as root dhcpcd eth0 Then check back 'ifconfig' and you should see the eth0 section. You may have to install 'dhcpcd' so type urpmi dhcpcd in a console to install this package. BTW, I added you to my 'friends' in MSN and you are not connected ..
