I just installed Gentoo Linux 1.4 with an Intel PRO/100 Server adapter. The installation went smooth, downloaded all the packages with no problem. DHCP provided the reserved IP that I set up for my linux machine but after the first reboot, DHCP won't respond to my linux box. I manually configured eth0 for 192.168.0.13 and when I try to ping the gateway, 0.1, it says destination host unreachable.

When I do ifconfig, I see 'ipv6 addr:' and I'm not exactly sure if this is the problem but how would I be able to disable ipv6 support? Do any of you have a solution as to why I can't ping the gateway on the LAN? Thanks in advance.

If it helps, I 'emerge e100' for my NIC during installation since it applies to my network hardware.

ping6 should be used for ipv6 pinging. ping doesn't seem to support ipv6.

Please post results of:

Code:
/sbin/ip -4 route show
/sbin/ip addr show


/sbin/ip is in sys-apps/iproute. Handy stuff.

For reference, here is what I get:

Code:
root@laureate:~# /sbin/ip -4 route show
152.15.230.0/24 dev eth0  proto kernel  scope link  src 152.15.230.54
192.168.2.0/24 dev eth2  proto kernel  scope link  src 192.168.2.1
192.168.1.0/24 dev eth1  proto kernel  scope link  src 192.168.1.1
127.0.0.0/8 via 127.0.0.1 dev lo  scope link
default via 152.15.230.253 dev eth0


Code:
root@laureate:~# /sbin/ip addr show
