 |
|
Im having problems with the wired NIC on a gentoo box.
Ive configured its wireless card, and I want to use SSH to access it to sort things out
when I try and start SSH it in turn tries to start eth0 ( which isnt working) so it fails.
Where do i tell SSH to use wlan0 ?

In /etc/conf.d/rc, find the line that says
| Code: | | RC_NET_STRICT_CHECKING="yes" |
and change it to
| Code: | | RC_NET_STRICT_CHECKING="no" |
and see if that helps. |

in /etc/ssh/sshd_config you can specify on what address ssh should list on:
| Code: | | ListenAddress 192.168.1.1 |
if that's the address of your wireless NIC.

thanks - changing the listen address didnt help - it still tried to start eth0.
changing rc.conf to 'none' did it.
