 Posted: Sat Sep 13, 2003 6:12 am Post subject: net.eth0 won't work manually |
 |
|
I have looked all over and caan't seem to find a solution. It works on boot, but a manual
| Code: |
/etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart
|
just doesn't seem to work. I have noticed this because my school is having some problems as of late, and I wish I could restart my ethernet without having to reboot.
Thanks[/code] |

the wierd thing is
chernobyl root # emerge dhcpd
Calculating dependencies
emerge: there are no masked or unmasked ebuilds to satisfy "dhcpd".
!!! Error calculating dependencies. Please correct. |

does ur network actually supports dhcp protocol?
if not, u better be off using | Code: | ifconfig eth0 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
route add default gw xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx |
keeping in mind that the gateway network as to be accessible from your ip!
otherwise , create a temp ip , load your gateway and change ur ip again
hope it works  |

yep it is dhcp alright.
But you are saying if I were setup as static net.eth0 would not be what I'd use? see, at school everything is assigned dhcp, but it is always the same ip because it does it by mac addr. Ideally I'd eventually want to have everything setup so I have it setup for my static ip, and be abole to restart the network w/o a prob.
this never was an issues in other distros though. I'd just restart network. |

right, i found this file lately  | Code: | | less /etc/dhcpc/dhcpcd-eth0.info |
it gives you all u want to know ip , netmask even the gateway which is often unknown .
but still , even though it seems static, it might change sometimes ... what happened to me lately so keep on the dhcpcd protocol.
just cat s | Code: | | /etc/dhcpc/dhcpcd-eth0.info > [some file somewhere safe] |
in case your dhcp protocol is not recognized anymore .... happened to me too  , so u can still enter the network |

| I still would like to be able to manually restart the nic normally like I always have done. Anyone want to post their script so I can try it out and see if it because mine is messed up? |

what do u mean manually ? using /etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart ?
did u actually merge dhcpcd ? is dhcpd working ?
does it take long to set eth0 up on boot? if so , it might be some kindda access control pb on the server site and honestly , if dhcpcd doesn't work.... i dont know what to do but typing in a script
a static configuration giving u the same detail that the dhcp will send u .... but without asking it |

yeah I* just merged it again. (it was already merged because I noticed it unmerged.
Anyways, I reallyt havn't set anything up for this. What really do I need for /etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart to work?
btw, in /etc/conf.d/net only iface_eth0="dhcp" is uncommented.
This has nothing to do with the network since I have my box at home right now (dhcp once again) and nothing is different. |

right, i commented the line from my /etc/conf.d/net and /etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart but the system froze ...couldn't kill any ifconfig & dhcpcd which were running ... not to do.
are u using a ethernet connection at your place? coz if not, then it is not net.eth0 which should be started but something like net.ppp0 i guess (have never been connected that way)...and if ur place is at the campus, i guess u might use the same server than at uni . |

it is ethernet, trust me.
here:
# ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr <mac addr here>
inet addr:xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx Bcast:xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx Mask:255.255.255.0

RX bytes:100 (100.0 b) TX bytes:100 (100.0 b)
does anyone know why my network start script would do this when I try to start/restart manually? |

what??? anytime internet goes down u dont reboot , r u?
give a try to those protocols ... in case it works :
othrwise, if u are sure that ur ip is kindda static even though u use a dhcp protocol, do the trick I told u , | Code: | | $cat /etc/dhcpc/dhcpcd-eth0.info > <wherever u like>/my_net_conf |
Then, whenever the net goes down, set ur gateway, your ip, bcast and netmask ....and there u go ! !!! .... in the meanwhile |
