Using FC4, installed by means of "Howtoforge" Installed fresh with 2 NICs, eth0 was a NIC card I removed, eth1 was onboard NIC. had trouble accessing email, so tried to re-do the ifcfg-eth0 files. All seems fine on the local network, accessing it behind router to my static ip's. From outside (public) cannot access www, email, not a thing... I turned off ispconfig firewall. All worked ok when 2 NICs were installed,...I just opened a can of worms taking out the NIC card, trying to run on the onboard NIC instead! ************ I made all these look the same: /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth0 /etc/sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/ifcfg-eth0 /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 DEVICE=eth0 BOOTPROTO=static BROADCAST=68.105.242.63 HWADDR=BLABLABLA IPADDR=68.105.242.53 NETMASK=255.255.255.224 NETWORK=68.105.242.32 ONBOOT=yes TYPE=Ethernet ************ Did I miss a network config file, or something else files? Did I do those 3 files correct? I am not very bright, eh? Thanks for any input, Rob
You mean you had eth0 and eth1, and then you removed eth0? I'd say you then need the files /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth1 /etc/sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/ifcfg-eth1 /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1 because you're using eth1. And as DEVICE in these files you should also use eth1 instead of eth0. Can you post the output of Code: ifconfig here?
Thanks I found out what was happening - I have a couple ip addresses that have not been used in awhile, cycled power on my cable modem, I can ping all the way out now.
