Any way to assign two IPs with different DHCP settings on my network setup?

linux-howto

http://serverfault.com – I currently have a router (Netgear WNDR3700 with DD-WRT; let's say its hostname is host1) and all the devices are behind its NAT. WAN \ \ host1 (dmz) <router>———[server] / | / | [pc] [laptop] My ISP is setting static IP addresses with dynamic DHCP and it's determining which IP address should I get by the hostname. The first static IP is assigned to the host1 hostname and I've set the 'host1' hostname to my router. I've got a second IP address and my ISP has set it to the host2. How do I assign the second IP (HowTos)

Suse 10 SP3 won't ping hostname 2 years 40 weeks ago

hi guys

I got something I haven't been able to fix I configure a Linux Suse 10 box, added static IP, DNS (resolv), gateway (routes) but I am not able to ping other servers by name but nslookup works and the server can navigate on internet check below the problematic server is server-host20

Code: # ping server-host1 ping: unknown host server-host1

# nslookup > server-host1 Server:  &

Thanks, but this did not work.The two OSes already have different hostnames. Although it may be that Mac OS is not passing the hostname, as when I am running MacOS, the router shows "Unknown" for the hostname.

I have been running a file server on Ubuntu for a couple of years now. Recently I had to take the network down. When I brought it back up, my server lost its ip address from the router.

I can't remember how to put it back in the dhcp mode. I know that running a server in the dhcp mode isn't optimal, but my router won't allow me to assign static ip addresses.

We have a small office network with DSL and a Netgear WNR-2000 wireless router acting as a DHCP server. There are nine devices connected to the router, wirelessly and wired. Whenever a Mac computer tries to connect, it's unsuccessful until we restart the router.

Before the switch to systemd, I was able to ssh between my two machines via user@hostname but now I get a "could not resolve hostname" error and have to use the IP address instead.

Propogating hostname to router 15 weeks 2 days ago

How do you propagate changes to your hostname from your Linux machine (I am using Linux Mint 13) to your router (I am using DG834Gv2)?

I changed the hostname in /etc/hostname and restarted. The router still resolves the old hostname to my IP address.

Thanks.

necessary ARP request? 1 year 11 weeks ago

Hello,

I have 2 clients with Unix installed. host1: eth0 (192.168.5.10) & eth1 (192.168.10.10) host2: eth0 (192.168.10.20)

I've connected host1-eth1 to host2-eth0. host1-eth0 isn't connected.

I started 'tcpdump' on wonder that host2 got ARP requests for 192.168.5.10. Any idea why host1 asks for an IP of own system?

From my laptop I'm trying to connect to HOST1 and I get:

$ ssh -vvv user@HOST1 OpenSSH_6.0p1 Debian-3ubuntu1, OpenSSL 1.0.1c 10 May 2012 debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config debug1: /etc/ssh/ssh_config line 19: Applying options for * debug2: ssh_connect: needpriv 0 debug1: Connecting to HOST1 [x.x.x.x] port 22. ssh: connect to host HOST1 port 22: Connection timed out

I often have the case that I have to make a lot of hops to the remote host, just because there is no direct routing between my client and the remote host.
