Cannot set internet connection during Arch install

linux-howto

https://bbs.archlinux.org – I tried the same with a spare cable that I had and the WIRED LED on the router turned on! It seems weird because it was working just fine yesterday, but probably reconnecting it to the router did the trick.After that, I still couldn't ping anything, so I did:# ip link set eth0 up # ip addr add 192.168.2.2/24 dev eth0 # ip route add default via 192.168.2.1And this got me to ping IPs just fine. Then I added my ISP's nameserver to /etc/resolv.conf and everything works now:# Generated by dhcpcd # /etc/resolv.conf.head can replace this line # /etc/resolv.conf.tail can replace this line na (HowTos)

Issue on resolv.conf 18 weeks 4 days ago

Hi all, :(

I am facing issue while I have updated in resolv.conf, after nework service restart, it was automatically deleted IP from resolv.conf file. Could you please let me know what is the reason resolv.conf deleted any IP which I have manually updated, but it store only my router IP permanently.

Advance thanks for helping..

I just got FIOS, MI242WR router hooked to my desktop using DHCP over ethernet.

a `ping google.com` succeeds, but it takes ~10 seconds for each ping to succeed.

If I ping the google IP, the ping runs every second, as I would expect.

Here is my resolv.conf:

Code: me@me:~$ cat /etc/resolv.conf # Generated by NetworkManager

I have set up my own bind9 DNS server and put into my /etc/resolv.conf

nameserver 127.0.0.1 domain mydomain.local

and put the same content into /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head

still the dns fails once in a while and additional information (the ones from my hoster) are magically written into the etc/resolv.conf. Am I missing any service how manages this file and conflicts with bind9?

Regenerating resolv.conf 13 weeks 4 days ago

I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 and I managed to stomp on my /etc/resolv.conf file. I believe this is the cause of me getting

ping: unknown host www.google.com

It says resolv.conf is auto generated but I cannot figure out how to regenerate this file back to its previous default settings. I've checked many forums and the man files and I am stuck.

Appreciate any help.

problem with dns 18 weeks 6 days ago

I'm currently experiencing a issue with my dns, affecting 'host' and 'apt-get'.

My network works before but now it has follow issue, when I ping google.com, I got

but my network still works partially because I can still connect to a DNS listed in my /etc/resolv.conf to get host google.com's ip adress by

I have Gentoo Linux amd64 installed on one of my computers. I have a static IP configured at /etc/conf.d/net:

auto_eth0="true" config_eth0="192.168.1.2/24" routes_eth0="default via 192.168.1.1" enable_ipv6_eth0="false"

I manually edited /etc/resolv.conf and added google dns servers. the problem is that whenever I restart my server /etc/resolv.conf gets wiped out.

Hey all! I installed XBMC live and stupidly skipped the networking configuration. So I manually added the entries for eth0 in /etc/network/interface, which looks like this now:

Code: # This file describes the network interfaces available on your system # and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
