linux-howto

https://bbs.archlinux.org – Hello,Since yesterday, I have important trouble with my network card.My only network card does not get IP address automatically through DHCP. Thus I have tested to launch dhcpcd manually however I just get a time out. I have tried to set fix IP address but ping does not work.My network cable seems to work as I can use it on another computer without problem.The only cause I can see is an hardware error with my network card (which is integrated in my mother board).mii-tool which can give information on the netword card just tell me that there is no MII transceiver and I don't know how to ch (HowTos)

Stories similar to DHCP Time Out

In my home network, I have wireless router and DHCP server running on it. When I try to connect with my laptop to my home network, I get following IP address:

169.254.76.100 255.255.0.0

That is odd, because my DHCP address scope is starting from 192.168.1.100 to 192.168.1.199. When I restart my wireless network card, same problem.

When I run ipconfig in Command Prompt,I get following results.

Manually setup WiFi card wlan0 10 weeks 2 days ago

I have a WiFi card on my Ubuntu 12.10 desktop box, the name of that card is wlan0, when I try to manually set up wlan0 to use DHCP from /etc/network/interfaces as showing below:

auto wlan0 iface wlan0 inet dhcp

Ubuntu can't boot.

However if using network-manager applet to setup dhcp for wlan0, wlan0 works well. I wonder what is wrong with my current setting for wlan0 card.

So I have an old computer functioning as an OpenBSD router for my home network. I had 3 network cards, one to wired home network, one to wireless network, and one to my modem. One day, pings magically stopped working. I login to the router with ssh over my wired network.. everything appears fine. dhclient is still getting an address from the modem and everything, but ping 8.8.8.8 doesn't work..

I'm running a Centos virtual machine on a laptop using a bridged network connection to avoid double-NAT issues, with the address assigned via DHCP.

I have only One dhcp server which has only one interface with ip address 10.0.0.1/24.

combined dhcp and static ip? 8 weeks 5 days ago

I know that there is an option for network-manager to get only the addres from DHCP but I think there's nothing for what you want.I'm not sure what you want to do. Do you have changing DNS servers and gateways?If you have control over the DHCP server you could do that by static DHCP (your pc gets the same address every time based on the MAC address).

HelloI add new network card to a VM with different IP classThe 2 network card have 2 different vlan (setting by vmware)the first work fine, the second not ping correctly

Setting up a Warewulf Cluster 29 weeks 2 days ago

I'm trying to set up a computer cluster for one of my professors using Fedora 17 and Warewulf. Everything was going smoothly until I started trying to add the node computers.

I would like to define a IPv4LL address (169.254.0.0/16) in parallel with the DHCP address received from the server on the same network card.

I tried to modify /etc/network/interfaces to that effect (see below), but either I only manage to get one of the two at any time.

auto lo iface lo inet loopback

auto eth0 eth0:1

iface eth0 inet dhcp iface eth0:1 inet ipv4ll

Any hints?
