View 1 RepliesI need to start DHCP after booting into run level 1.
So i am going to ....
ifconfig eth1 up
what is the command to start DHCP service?
I tried:
Quote:
ifconfig dsl up
ifconfig up dsl
ip link set dsl up
But I think I should have typed:
Quote:
ifconfig ppp0 up
Yesterday I was lost, I updated the drivers for the nvidia card and that broke X, since my internet is not up and running when booted I was wandering how to call it from the command line since that was the only thing I could see.
Since I wasn't able to figure out how to enable ctrl alt backspace in kde I thought I would explain how to do it from the command line. Open /etc/X11/xorg.conf as root. Then add this to the file.
Code:
Section "ServerFlags"
Option "DontZap" "false"
EndSection

Enable:
Code:
gconftool-2 --type string --set /desktop/gnome/session/required_components/windowmanager "compiz-gtk"
Disable:
Code:
gconftool-2 --type string --set /desktop/gnome/session/required_components/windowmanager "metacity"
Log out and log back in
I have a Sony TZ270N running Ubuntu 10.04 splendidly. The Sprint Mobile Broadband works great, but it's a bit cumbersome to activate. Specifically, to get it to work I need to:
echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/sony-laptop/wwanpower
sleep 5
echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/sony-laptop/wwanpower
Then I wait another five seconds, right-click on the networking icon, choose "Enable mobile broadband", then left-click on the networking icon, and choose "Connect to Sprint Connection". I do this multiple times a day, and it's just a bit of a pain, especially when in a hurry. Accordingly, I'd like to script it so I can do the whole thing with a single command.
I've already put the above echo statements into a script and it works great; is there any way to script the actual start of the PPP session itself -- with the caveat that I'd like the networking icon to accurately reflect the latest state?
(In other words, I don't want to bypass the networking icon and just launch the PPP session in the background -- I want it to show that I'm connected, and still let me manage the connection via the icon after connected.)
My DHCP setting is disabled in fedora 12 . Previously i was using static IP address. I Want DHCP setting enable, any idea.

If we download the Networkinstaller and put it in Grub, it is possible to set some settings with a script or commandline? We need SSH and the Network haves to run. So we have to set up the Networkadress , Gateway and Netmasq. So if the Networkinstaller is booting that we get direcly access with SSH to install CentOS. It is possible?

I'm having problems with my Nvidia card. X doesn't work after installation (9.10), only command prompt. I've read the instructions at http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/nvidia on how to enable Nvidia drivers, but the instructions are only for GUI, which I don't have.
Anyone knows how to enable Nvidia drivers from command line ?

I ran into this problem like a year ago for the first time and I really would like to solve this ( with your help now). I've already used hours trying to figure this out and seeked solutions online. So first things first:
- I want to connect to a wireless access point from CLI (for many different reasons)
- I'm using Fedora 13 with KDE and Gnome some specs:

I have just a one line script that runs telnet, and even thoughI've looked around I thought maybe someone could just tell me if there is a way to automatically login to the telnet server without having to type it in everytime. It's more of a hassle type of thing, but no matter what I've tried, I can't get anything to work.
View 5 Replies View RelatedIve been struggling to configure a wireless interface on Fedora 9I need to configure wlan0 command line only with NO display managerIve tried setting up /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-wlan0 with the right information, doing dhcpbut no ip is retrieved. Checking the dhcp server logs on the DHCP server - no request is received.The link light on the wireless nic is not on either. iwconfig shows it has an Access point associated and an ESSID but im not getting back any IP.There seems to be very little documenta on how to set up wireless nics command line only on Fedora
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am fairly familiar with Linux but had never ventured into Wlan settings / options / too much. I have compatible card (aetheros) and when running - iwlist wlan0 scanning - I get plenty networks showing up - meaning the card works. When I installed distro which is last night (before I ran update), I had that little bars menu at the top of the screen that showed available networks once clicked upon. Since I like to modify and make my settings better - I removed that little AT&T like bar, and now rebooted after update to find that I can not see available networks unless I use iwliset wlan0 scanning.... .#$*&)@&#(&%# - need I say more.
Two questions - how do you connect to the wireless network via command line? What is that vertical bars GUI tool called so I can find it and run it again? Is there (for the love of god) alternative to system-config-network GUI managment tool for wlan?
I'm tryn' to connect to my wireless network using command line:iwconfig wlan0 essid MY_NETWORK as root.
After this typingiwconfig wlan0
result is:
wlan0 IEEE 802.11g ESSID:off/any
Mode:Managed Frequency:2.437 GHz Access Point: Not-Associated
Bit Rate:1 Mb/s

I have been trying to get command line email working for cron email reports and such. I have set up stunnel for ssl and this works with thunderbird (set to route through stunnel with no ssl in thunderbird). I am trying to use ssmtp as I don't need all the complexity of sendmail - just trying to use an [URL]..account It complains that my address is not verified. I think the from line is not set up properly but I have been unable to see this in the stunnel logs and ssmtp doesn't seem to have logs. Is there a way to get more logs from stunnel. How do I make sure I am sending the right email and not something like "localhost"?

View 2 Replies View Related I set up Samba using command line terminal, and my network does not work. I have Samba username and keyring passwords all set, then I go to gui system-config-samba, and my samba user profile password is incorrect. In the past, I have used a 10 letter password, however, every time I boot the computer, I have to go back in and re-enter the password.I wonder if samba is truncating the password because it only accepts an 8 character password? I have deleted the user, and added a new username, and it is still doing it.
If I go into the gui and re-enter the password, usually I can get the network back up with my windows machine. All of the parameters are correct, I use the network to transfer files from my Windows to my Fedora drive all of the time when it works.
F10 trying to key in static ip address. Have followed guidelines on turningoff NetworkManager and turning on network. i went to command line and did a couple of chkconfig things and entered ip address, with subnet. when i do ip addr show i see under eth0 inet 192.168.3.11/32 which is 255.255.255.0, i'm pretty sure. i do not see gateway. when i go to system/network get prompted to log into root, network config window opens. icheck eth0 and the subnet mask is 192.168.3.1, the gateway, which is in correctly, in the gateway slot, as well. i still can not ping to from my xp based multihomed router.
View 3 Replies View RelatedThe GUI for network configuration of Fedora is marvellous such that the configuration is almost fool-proof. But how can I make the connection by hand in the command line mode? It goes okay except the very last step. When I disconnect the eth0 interface from the right-hand side of the desktop GUI, I tested how to bring it back by command line but I failed. When disconnected, the ifconfig still shows the eth0 interface, with just the ip address portion changed.
I tried "ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.xx" to give it an ip address but the connection is still down even if the ifconfig shows an ip address for the eth0 interface. Then I tried "/etc/init.d/network restart" and "ifup eth0" and also "route add defaut gw 192.168.1.1" but none of these could accomplish the same work as a single click on the GUI to connect. I am very curious about how to do it in the terminal.
