My ethernet works like on demand. The Network allways goes off, when i do not use it for 5 or 10 miutes. When i want to use it again, then i must always the following ping commands ( ping localhost, ping [any domain]), after that i can use the Internet again.
- Why my lenny is working like on demand?
- Does give any network changes with debian lenny?
I work at a public library, and am relatively new to Debian. Our OPACs (Online Public Access Catalogs) are running Debian Lenny. They are locked down to loading and visiting one specific webpage through a combination of Kiosktool and in the Opera browser.Initially, I had one machine set up with a static IP address, which worked just fine. Each machine has its own static IP which is translated at our Cisco ASA 5505 firewall to individual, physical IP addresses on the outside. However, I had many more machines that I wanted to clone from the working system.On the cloned machines, the physical network card in the machine shows up in ifconfig eth1, because it is "remembering" the eth0 network card from the master machine that it was cloned off ofNo problem, I thought, I will just change interfaces to the following:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
address 127.0.0.1

I just installed HPLIP using Synaptic package manager. One of the configure parameters (shown by 'hp-check -r') is
Code:
Am I correct in assuming that this means that a network printer will not work? Is there a way to override this while still using synaptic package manager? Would I then be able to use a network printer?
I have my eye on the HP photosmart plus B209A - and it looks like HPLIP supports it (there is a ppd file for it).
I am trying to install Debian Lenny via Hyper-V. I get to the point where it asks for the network card. For some reason it can not find my network card. I have a RealTek (RTL8112L PCIe Gigabit LAN controller featuring AI NET 2 built on motherboard).
For some reason it doesn't see it. My issue is if I continue without the network how am I getting the drivers? Unfortunately Hyper-V doesn't support USB. I guess I can try to burn to CD but not looking to waste a cd for 480k and not sure that will work as I only see a auto.sh and a couple other files under scr directory. If anyone has any ideas please let me know. This is a fairly new Motherboard/NIC so I do not understand why it isn't recognized. I know it cant have everything but Realtek is a fairly common nic.
I have installed a Clearos box (believe this is based on redhat/centos)in our office as this is an easy setup to try and replace a windows box. We can add our windows pc so it as it acts like a domain controller.I would like to get a couple of Linux machine on the network such as Mint, Debian Lenny or ubuntu. The problem here is I need to find a way of getting these pc to as such login to the domain so they authenticating with the clearos box to login. Is there an easy way of doing this.

I tried squeeze yesterday on my virtual machine and it has 4.6 and seem not to have that bug, RAM usage is static(yes it still works when i write this and have memory usage 34492k, which is not changing for an hours of usage already), also 4.6 is MUCH better than 4.4.
i already tried adding squeeze to "sources.list" but i can see too many dependencies which should be upgraded if i install 4.6, i'm beginning to afraid it can crash entire GUI(or entire system, i can see there is libc6 required to be updated).

View 14 Replies View RelatedI have added a 10 Mbps network card to my SGI O2 MIPS workstation running Debian Lenny running the 26-2 kernel. The workstation already has an onboard NIC which is working fine.(eth0).
lspci -v shows ths card as:-00:03.0 Ethernet controller: Compex ReadyLink 2000 (rev 0a) Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 18 I/O ports at 1800 [disabled] [size=32] Upon googling I found out that this card is an NE2000 clone. I downloaded the latest 2.6.36 kernel sources and did the following:-
1. Make Menuconfig
2. Loaded an alternate kernel config file (my working kernel config file)
3. In DeviceDrivers->Network device support->Ethernet (10 or 100 Mbit)
I selected ASIX AX88796 as the help associated with this showed it as an NE 2000 clone. configured it to be a module and did make, make_modules and make_install. Edited /etc/Modules to load ax88796 and added an alias eth1 ax88796 to this file. copied the new kernel to the /boot and did a reboot, the machine booted up fine and udev -r showed the 2.6.36 kernel and lsmod showed ax88796 loaded. But, Iam not able to bring up eth1 using:-
ifup eth1
The error messages given are:-
SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
eth1: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
SIOCSIFNETMASK: No such device

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to install Debian/Lenny on a iBook clamshell. I couldn't seem to burn an install CD that the iBook would recognize, so I eventually copied the contents of the CD onto a self-powered USB drive and I can now get the iBook to boot off of that thru open firmware. However, when I get to the Debian installer main menu, it still won't read the CD, and apparently it does not have network drivers to install over Ethernet. Is there any way I can supply a driver for the ethernet interface (lspci reports that its a sun GEM ethernet interface) or somehow convince the installer to install from the content of the USB drive (which is a duplicate of what's on the installer CD)? Heck, if it'd be easier to get the Airport interface running to reach the Internet I'd be up for that too.

It does, however, work with my router connecting without any issues.

View 3 Replies View RelatedNow that the stable version of Squeeze is available, the newbie that I am is asking himself this almost existential question: should I get Squeeze or stick to Lenny?Some arguments in favors of Lenny that are coming into his mind are that there is more material, tutorials, in brief, more resources to find as to learn and solve problems.
But is this true and if yes, is it a reason?What about security?There is also this widespread saying that tells to always get the last release for performance and security reasons.Being in this position where I obviously don't have a lot of knowledge and experience to judge myself with all the elements, assessing thoroughly all the differents factors, I would have like to listen you opinion(s) on it.
