Hi dear all.
I'm trying to get eth0 operational as follows:
Initial situation after boot: | Code: | Destination Passerelle Genmask Indic Metric Ref Use Iface
127.0.0.0 127.0.0.1 255.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 lo |
shell script to start eth0 and add a minimal routing:
| Code: | /sbin/ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.21/24
route add default gw 192.168.0.1 eth0 |
which leads to this:
| Code: | Destination Passerelle Genmask Indic Metric Ref Use Iface
192.168.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 1 0 0 eth0
127.0.0.0 127.0.0.1 255.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 lo
0.0.0.0 192.168.0.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 |
at this stage I can ping another adress in my local network. Unfortunatly DNS resolution doesn't work. My /etc/resolv.conf | Code: | cat /etc/resolv.conf
# Generated by resolvconf
search fontenay.lpm
nameserver 208.67.222.222
nameserver 208.67.220.220 |
What am I missing ?
EDIT : resolv.conf is empty at boot time. See below
Thanks for your attention

CaptainBlood,
That all looks good - you are using opendns.
Try | Code: | ping google.com
ping 173.194.36.104 |
Thats ping google by name and IP
IF the first fails and the latter works, try using your ISPs nameservers

Thanks for quiick reply 
Actually I made a mistake, because the resolv.conf is empty at boot time.
NetworkManager must be the culprit as it is started at boot time.
Updating the /etc/resolv.conf as I've described it made the trick.
My aim is to open and close eth0 as root at boot time. I guess I will solve that issue the rough way, i.e. overwriting the file by copy.
Thanks for your attention, interest and support |
