I installed CentOS. NetworkManager successfully installed and launched. I can ping any IP from terminal but I can't open any site in browser except 127.0.0.1 I can't open IP of the modem 192.168.1.1 in browser also.
The results of some commands:
ifconfig
eth0Link encap: EthernetHWaddr 7D:60:00:00:00:00
inet addr: 192.168.1.5Bcast: 192.168.1.255Mask:255.255.255.0

I have an MSI K9A2 Platinum mobo, which has a 10/100/1000 Fast Ethernet Realtek 8111B built-in, a D-Link DIR-655 Router and a DSL modem. Compared to Windows Visya and other Linux distros ( Fedora 11, Suse 11.1, Mandriva 2009.1 ) access to the internet is much slower. It seems there is a noticeable delay when running CentOS 5.3. before internet access kicks in each time I am surfing the web or updating my system.
Is there any way I can speed things up, or determine why CentOS 5.3 seems much slower ?
I installed CentOS on Vmware server 2.0.2
I took a snapshot of my machine with internet working
If I reboot my machine I lose internet. This makes no sense to me.
I ifconfig eth0 down then ifconfig eth0 up and still no internet
Weird thing
I check ifconfig and my bcast ID is 192.168.2.255 when it is supposed to be 192.168.45.255
(When the internet is working if I check ifconfig the bcast ID is 192.168.2.255)
IF I change my bcast my internet stops working
If I reboot my machine my internet stops working
I checked /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 and I see that in my snapshot (where the internet is actually working) the bcast is at 192.168.2.255
Without rebooting if I edit that script and I put it to .45.255 my internet stops working
If I reboot my machine at any time my internet stops working
I have also just realized that I cannot ping my gateway..
I've just installed Windows &, but now my internet doesn't work. How is that possible?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've installed CentOS 5.3 on a machine, and I need a Samba version 3.2 or higher. Since 3.4 is out, I thought I'd grab that. But, "yum list|grep samba" gives me only version 3.0.33. Is there a package of Samba I can grab that will upgrade the 3.0 installation so that I don't have two laying around? If not and I need to compile from source, do you have any suggestions for what arguments I should give configure? I'm not used to Linux coming from the BSD world
View 1 Replies View RelatedI just upgraded by box from Fedora Core 9 to Centos 5.2. Finally!I have a 500GB SATA drive, it's partitioned into three equal size slices, hda1 through 3. The old Fedora was on hda1, I installed the new Centos on hda3. I instructed the installer to write the MBR to /dev/hda, not /dev/hda3. Fdisk says I have sector 0 unused.First, the system wouldn't boot - it just looped through the BIOS, rebooting over and over again. The BIOS sees the disk, but it never loaded Grub. I tried re-running grub-install /dev/hda, and not I get a Grub Error 17 after stage 1.5 loads.
I can boot from rescue OK, the grub.conf man menu.lst look fine, it's pointing to "root (hd0,2)". It's either the BIOS that can't find the MBR, or the MBR can't find Grub.When I looked at the disk with fdisk after the install, hda1 was still marked bootable, hda3 was not, so I swapped bootable flags but that has not made a difference. I also appended the new grub to the old grub thinking I could get the MBR (if it is there) to load the old grub and thence find the new Centos, but that didn't work either.Mobo is an old Shuttle AK35.Any ideas? Did I mess up by not telling the system to put the MBR on /dev/hda3? Is there a way to fix this without reinstalling?
I am having trouble logging into a newly installed CentOS 5.3 box. I can SSH into the machine with root but can not do so with any normal users. I get the error, "connection refused." My firewall is currently turned off.

View 1 Replies View RelatedIs there any way to setup the Centos Directory Server without an internet connection?? i tried using the command: yum install centos-ds
but this just tries to connect to the internet to to download the packages. Is there a site where i can find the package so that i can copy it to my server and install it or is there some other way to do this?
i am sort of a n00b at *nix, and i wanted to install KSB26 on my centos 5.3 install.I downloaded the file. and extracted it.I modified the install.sh in the file to point to /usr/src/kernels/.I run the installation, but it shows many errors telling me to run make oldconfig and make prepare on the src.I run that but i still get the same error and installtion does not occur.Do i need any special packages installed?
View 3 Replies View RelatedThe install actually seemed to go pretty smoothlyIt's a dell pentium4 with 128mbyes it installed textuallyI start the gui with 'startx'but the question I have is for the more experienced CentOS people.when I login as rootI am trying to figure out how to get my machine onto the internet.I had figured the OS would have NO problem with a Linksys 10/100 pci cardsince the OS has the latest drivers and all.The system reports the NIC as a "ADMtek NC100 ethernet" card (eth0)it also reports that the status is "ok"Now, I've seen the NIC when it's plugged into a hub (during the O/S install)and it DOES make the hub's light flicker when it tries to "talk" to it.but when I have it plugged into my Cable Modem (for internet) it's not doing anything.
During the install I SAW the NIC making the hub lights flicker... so I know the interface WAS doing "something".but nowwhen I go into the gui and I try the NetWork Admin , and I try to "activate" the card.Nothing.Am I NOT doing something that I SHOULD be doing?fconfig? (at the command line?) ifup? I would have thought I'd "activate" it with the gui ok...I'll keep poking around.I'm just a little surprised is all. Ubuntu 8.1 had no problem "discovering" and using a wireless Linksys cardTHIS operating system is even newer
I've been using Linux for about 2 years now, mostly Ubuntu & derivatives, but I've also tried Fedora, Mandriva, and others. I wanted to give CentOS a try because I'm very interested in going for a Linux+ or similar certification, and so I'm looking to start learning how to configure & maintain Linux servers and so on. I have a friend who's a Linux sysadmin, and he recommended CentOS as a good learning tool.
Anyway, I've only got a wireless connection in my office at home (the actual cable modem is downstairs) so I intentionally chose a wireless adapter that would work with Linux -- it has a Realtek RLT8187 chip, for which there is support built into the kernel, or so I've read. It has worked out of the box in just about every distro I've tried, and indeed it worked OOTB when I tried out the CentOS 5.5 live CD.
However, when I actually installed the CentOS to my hard drive it no longer worked -- I have only a greyed out option for a wired connection (presumably since my motherboard has an ethernet adapter, but there is no connection). Why the wireless would work in the live session but not after install? Is there a firmware file or something I need to track down? I did look on this page, but it doesn't mention anything about RTL8187.
I have CentOS5.5, it has full access to internet until I did something to it I couldn't figure out. This is not a cable issue since I could ping and ssh to other machines within my lan. Apache is also running fine, which is probably irrelevant. When I type traceroute cnn, it simply hangs, later saying [URL]:
Temporary failure in name resolution
Cannot handle "host" cmdline arg '[URL]' on position 1 (argc 1)
This is a desktop version of CentOS5.5, when i do Administration - Network, it says eth0 is active and Primary and Secondary DNS are set correctly to my comcast DNS server at 68.94.15x.1
I have a 4.7 VPS web server on the net and it works very well. I am intending to upgrade it to Centos 5.x and have been having a play using VMWare Appliances and VMWare Player. I have therefore installed a local 4.7 applicance (all works well) and a 5.2 appliance (can't get basic internet connectivity).
I am running VMWare in Vista (apologies) and am connecting via a broadband modem (which effectively presents a serial modem to the computer via a USB interface). Using VMWare I am hooking this up to either the 4.7 appliance (works fine) or the 5.2 appliance (detects fine and connects but there is a problem). I think the issue with 5.2 is a firewall or a routing issue
I have prepared a report of the most common things people would need to know. The 5.2 appliance can see the USB device (lsusb), connects fine and obtains an IP and DNS addresses (wvdial) but ping fails. However the same on the 4.7 appliance works fine - I can use yum, ping and lynx etc. I have turned off the firewall on both appliances, but something is still getting in the way in 5.2!

I have a CentOS server that I can connect to over my local network. The computer I'm currently on is on that same network and can access the internet. My server can not connect to the internet. The network card is obviously connecting to the network since I can access the server locally with SSH or HTTP. While in the terminal for the server, I type wget google.com and the server can not find the specified host, so this leaves me to believe it can not access the internet.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently configure a centos linux distro to use on the internet.my actual plan is to use it as a router to the internet for computers on my network. the system already has two lan cards which i have configured with their appropriate ip addresses. now with this initial configuration i believe i should be able to browse the internet, but my problem now is that i cant even though the lan card pointing to isp is correctly configured with the ips,gateway and dns from my isp. i cant even do a ping to the outside world.
I cant really pin point where the issue is coming from but i am guessing maybe my route are not well configured. i get ''unknown host google.com" message when i ping google.com and a ping to my gateway address gives '' Network is unreachable". i have been using this system before as my gateway, but only recently switched isp and i started having this issue when i reconfigure the system to my new isp settings. Now, on a windows system, all goes fine so i have been able to safely remove the fact that maybe it is from my isp from the picture. How do i resolve this?
How can I successfully SSH using SecureCRT from the Internet to my Centos Linux box at home behind the router? I have a DGL-4500 dLink router. I configured a Virtual Server in the router for SSH 192.168.0.182 Protocol 6 TCP public port 22 ? private port 22 Schedule Always Allow Inbound Filter Allow All. Further I Enable DMZ for 192.168.0.182. I got my Internet IP address through "what is my ip website." Now every time when I try to SSH, I get a message "The remote system refused the connection". Here is iptables -L command output;
[root@localhost ~]# iptables -L

I just downloaded and installed the latest Cent OS 5. I disabled SE linux, turned off the firewall, and selected the Server package options when installing. I plan on using this as a router/firewall between my internal network and the internet, as well as web server, etc. The first thing I did was to configure the two NICs, internal one with 192.168.7.1 address and the other with an address from my ISP (I have a static address, but I also tried to let the DSL router assign an address via DHCP). Everything looked fine, I checked /etc/resolv.conf and my routes. I was able to ping the DSL router from the server, but I was not able to do a ping or lookup on anything outside my network. I tried host, dig, nslookup, etc, no luck. Obviously then, I was not able to browse the net with firefox.

My other uses on on LAN can access Internet but Cant ping the server.
Though they were able to do that earlier.
No software installed. No change in any files.
I am a newcommer to Centos. I should connect to internet via a pptp vpn connection. I created the connection in "network connections". In other distrows I could connect to created pptp vpn connection simply by clicking on network-manager-applet and selecting the connection, but there is no network-manager-applet in Centos. Is there any way to connect to the vpn connection I created or I should go to do it by manually editing config files?

The output for the command sestatus is: SELinux status: disabled
2. Am I right to think that iptables is not a concern since SELinux is disabled? In any case, the output for the command "iptables -L" is:
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)

ACCEPT udp -- anywhere anywhere udp dpt:domain
ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:domain
