Fedora Networking :: Activate Device When Computer Starts

Jul 28, 2010

I just did a clean install and ran system-config-network from command line to fix my IP settings. Everything works but when I reboot, my NIC is gone from #ifconfig -a

I have to login to the GUI and go to System --> Administration --> Network --> "Click on my NIC" --> check the box that says "Activate device when computer starts"

Once this box is checked, everything works fine. - I have turned off NetworkManager and just use the network service to manage my ip settings.

I was wondering if this "Activate device when computer starts" can be done through the command line without having to access the GUI?

Fedora Networking :: Can't "activate" Wireless Device WUSB54GC?

Sep 23, 2009

I installed Fedora 11 last night, and it seemed to go OK. The trouble is, I cannot get a wireless connection to the internet. The system seems to recognize my wireless USB adapter, but the buttons to activate the device remain grayed-out no matter what I try. I ran through all of the steps in the help menu (still grayed-out); I tried deleting and adding the device (no go); I tried to run the installation disk that came with the USB adapter (wouldn't run); I pulled the drivers off of the installation disk (Fedora couldn't recognize the file type); I changed it from "wlan" to "eth0" to "eth1"... but still no love!

This doesn't seem like a problem between the adapter and the router... the USB adapter and my PC can see each other, but can't "talk" to each other.

Info:
PC - Dell Optiplex GX50 (circa 2001)
OS - Fedora 11
USB adapter - Linksys WUSB54GC
Wireless Router - Linksys WRT54G (reflashed with dd.wrt)

Networking :: "cannot Activate Network Device Eth0"?

Dec 28, 2010

The problem I'm having is on a CentOS4 machine. I don't use CentOS regularly (Ubuntu and Mint, yes) so I'm not sure if this is something that is particular to CentOS or not. I have this workstation that controls a microscope controller. The drives in this computer are some POS Seagate drives where the data storage drive has already conked out more than once. I think this time there was a problem with the OS drive that caused a lot of filesystem errors. I wasn't able to boot the OS at first but I ran fsck from a liveCD and was able to fix the (hundreds of) errors and the OS can now boot from the drive. The problem ave now is the ethernet does not work. I know there's not a problem with the ethernet controllers because I can access the internet through the liveCD. When I try to activate eth0, or eth1, I get the following error:Quote:

Cannot activate network device eth0!
network-functions: line 180: ip: command not found
WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.9-89.0.9.ELsmp/modules.symbols line 1: ignoring bad line starting with 'GROUP'

Ubuntu :: Activate A VPN Tunnel Through Ssl, The VPN Server Starts Up "Adito" Agent?

Jul 25, 2010

Working with Amahi server and the VPN app. WHenever I want to activate a VPN tunnel thru ssl, the VPN server starts up "Adito" agent. Normally in Windows, the agent pops up with a browser and basically lets you surf inside the VPN.But when I use my Ubuntu, it says it's starting teh agent and then it just sits there and stalls out with failed to sync.I checked the logs and this is all I got:

p kernel: [29491.039030] type=1503 audit(1280097273.298:147): operation="file_mmap" pid=8323 parent=8320 profile="/usr/lib/firefox-3.6.7/firefox-*bin//firefox_java" requested_mask="mr::" denied_mask="m::" fsuid=1000 ouid=1000

General :: Drivers - Unable To Activate Wireless After Device Has Been Re-enabled

May 8, 2010

Using a Eee 900A netbook by Asus. By pressing Fn + F2, I can disable or enable the wireless chip on the netbook, a blue LED indicates the status. I've been able to connect to wireless networks just fine with this netbook. However, if the wireless chip ever becomes disabled, I have to reboot to get my network connection back. This generally happens when suspending. For some reason the LED will be off and I have to hit Fn + F2 for it to light up again.

However, after doing so, Linux will not reconnect to the network. It simply changes the wireless status from "wireless is disabled" to "device not ready". Even worse, I've recently had issues with the chip being enabled at boot, thus making it nearly impossible to get connected. I've searched around on-line but haven't found much of anything useful on this. This happens on all kinds of different distros including Ubuntu 9.10 Netbook, EeeBuntu 4 beta, Jolicloud and Ubuntu 10.04 Netbook.

Ubuntu :: Computer Starts Then Shuts Down All By Itself?

Oct 3, 2010

After using Ubuntu 10.4 for months, my computer has started turning itself on without my pressing the on button. Sometimes it gets halfway through the boot process and shuts itself down. Sometimes it gets all the way to the desktop and a window pops up saying shutdown in 60 seconds however it never waits but shuts down immediately. Probably the second time this happened, I had time enough to get to the Power Manager and made sure it was set to 'never' power down. Currently the on/off cycling is happening so quickly I can't check the BIOS or grup. My only control is the master power switch on the back

Fedora Networking :: Cannot Activate Via System-config-network?

May 28, 2009

I've been running F10 since it first came out, and I was happy to see it was the first Fedora release that automatically recognized my Atheros wireless card. I have to run system-config-network and press the "activate" button when I start the machine, but that's ok and no big deal. But today, for whatever reason,in system-config-network, the "activate" and "deactivate" buttons are grayed out and I cannot start the device so I have no network access. When I boot the machine into Windows, it works fine.

Ubuntu :: Computer Randomly Starts Refusing SSH Connections?

Jul 20, 2010

The ssh server is running Xubuntu 9.04. It was working before. Then I tried SSHing today and it gave me a connection refused. The computers I've tried SSHing from were running Ubuntu Netbook Remix 10.04, MacOS, and Solaris 10. None of them would connect. The ssh server is running the latest version of openssh-server (according to apt-get install). I'm assuming something in /etc/ssh/ got changed but I'm not sure.

Fedora Networking :: No Network When Desktop Gui Starts.

Feb 2, 2010

Brand new clean install of F12. On boot the network starts and grabs an IP from my DHCP server and will return pings, however, as soon as the logon window starts "all" network activety is stopped.

I have tried deactivating the NIC, then enabling again, (doesn't get an ip at this point), turning off the firewall, managing the network with & without network manager enabled, selinux off...all makes no difference.

I need to be able to connect to my home network, or hell any wireless network.I've tried using iwconfig wlan0 as well as the options in the Network Configuration panel as well as other related panels. I'm able to change and set up profiles for the wireless card, but not to activate them. The button just isn't clickable.If it helps, I'm running Security Spin from a unetbootin usb drive. The wireless card is identified by the system as "Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 4965 AG or AGN [Kedron] Network Connection" .

Software :: Ubuntu 10.04 - VNC - When Computer Starts Up/reboots It Doesn't - Unlock The System Keyring

Nov 11, 2010

I've got a computer i'm trying to VNC to.

The problem is that when the computer starts up/reboots it doesn't "Unlock the system keyring"(I think that's what it said).

When I try and attempt to connect to the computer it asks for the VNC password(as per normal) but fails to connect after that.

The reason is that the Ubuntu computer prompts for the user's password to unlock the system(locally).

What I want is to be able to turn on the computer without having to worry about entering the password. I've had it running fine on 8.04 yet the newer version seems to be annoying :s

The system is set to automatically login on startup too.

I've tried this: "delete the keyring folder under /home/XXXX/.gnome2" then setup remote desktop again. But that hasn't worked either. I still have to enter the password to a keyring

Ubuntu Networking :: Wireless Starts And Stops And Starts And Stops?

Feb 10, 2010

Sometime after I upgraded to ubuntu 9.10 I've been having trouble with my wireless network connection.It will usually log on to the network, then disconnect a shortly after. Then try to connect again, usually successfully, then it cuts off again. Then connects again, then disconnects. FWIW, ubuntu 9.10 works on a different machine pretty consistently, so I don't think its a problem with the router.
