Fedora Networking :: Dhclient-script Gives Router Address ?
Jul 7, 2011
I have just installled fedora, and I am puzzled by dhclient-script. Because it gives the router ip as nameserver 192.168.0.1. I have had other linux distro on same machine that resolves the correct nameserver without any configuring.
Does anyone know how to get your ISP:s nameservers instead in /etc/resolv.conf when running dhclient from CLI? I have thought about edit /sbin/dhclient-script. But if that is the case. Which option should I edit?

I noticed that my internet connection wasn't automatically brought up each time I logged into Fedora so I opened the system-config-network tool and edited my network adapter by checking the box marked "automatically start at boot/login." To my surprise, the connection went down and upon trying to click on the device to let the manager bring up the connection the greyed-out phrase "device not managed" appeared underneath the device name and wouldn't allow me to connect.
Even when I used ifconfig/dhclient to get the connection up nothing happened. I could get the router to assign an IP address through DHCP, pinged a few sites to make sure it was legit, but still couldn't use firefox to browse anything. Seems as if network manager GUI is conflicting with command line attempts to bring the network up. I'd like to permanently disable system-config-network if possible because it's acting screwy!

I have been struggling to get FC15 to act as an IPv6 router for a while now, am sure I am missing something trivial.. The idea is that I have a ppp / adsl connection (this works fine), use the wireless card on my pc with hostapd and dhcpd to provide connections to other pcs (works fine), and radvd to delegate ipv6 addresses.
The issue seem to be that as soon as I turn on ipv6 forwarding (net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding =1), the ppp connection no longer gets an IPv6 address. This means the router cannot ping any ipv6 address outside my network.
If I disable ipv6 routing, my router gets an IPv6 address on its ppp connection, and can ping things such as ipv6.google.com just fine, however (of course) no packets are forwarded from my network and radvd complains that forwarding is disabled.

I am running Fedora 13 and after my machine is booted my ethernet interface eth0 does not have an IP address. Running
Code:
At the terminal does not work, and I can see that in /var/log/messages I have the following error:
Code:
I assume that the same command was attempted during the boot process (please correct me if I am wrong) to use DHCP to get an address for eth0, but failed for the same reason it is failing after boot when I run it manually, whatever that reason may be.
I noted, however, that eth0 IS in broadcast mode:
Code:
I also noted that running
Code:
Does in fact work and will run DHCP and configure eth0 with an ip address.
It is quite mysterious to me why running 'dhclient eth0' will work, but manually running 'dhclient' does not.

I'm using an ubuntu machine to route internet to my main PC. I think I finally got it working with DHCP and all, but there's still a slight problem. DNS does not work! My /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf file contains the following lines:
Code:
default-lease-time 600;
max-lease-time 7200;
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
option broadcast-address 192.168.0.255;
[Code].....
I am currently only able to post on this forum because I copied /etc/resolv.conf from my server to my main machine. Now DNS is working. But it should update automatically, right? Currently, this isn't working.
If possible, I'd like it most if I wouldn't have to hardcode the DNS servers in /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf either, but that the server would just relay the DNS adress it has gotten itself!

I have read in a forum that a computer can have the same MAC Address with its router in the sane LAN but how is that possible? Isn't every MAC unique? Also I have not understood, when we send a packet to a PC that is not in our LAN the packet should have the IP Address or the MAC Address of the computer that we want to send?

I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 and my setup is as follows:
As you can see, I am directly connected to router 192.168.25.1, and so my ip address is 192.168.25.101. I want my ip address to be 192.168.13.101, and make router 192.168.13.1 my gateway router. Is this possible under the current physical layout (I do not want to have to connect directly into 192.168.13.1, but keep my computer where it is at)?
When I run tracepath, it shows 192.168.13.1 is one hop away.
What I've tried:
The problem is under this manual setup, I cannot ping 192.168.13.1 and running command netstat -rn returns the following:

I've only been using linux for a few days so I don't know all the tricks. I'm pretty savy configuring windows networks however.My adapter is (according to windows) a: CNet PRO200WL PCI fast ethernet adapterLinux says it is a: 21x4x DEC-tulip compatible 10/100 EthernetI do seem to be getting an ip address from the DHCP router, but I cannout ping any other ips or connect to the internet.I've tried a bunch of different options, switching things back and forth, but it still doesn't work, and honestly i don't even know what some of the options mean.
ALSO, if this helps:

Had a problem getting my internet connection working with Ubuntu, but I resolved that issue. Problem is I still have to manually run dhclient every time Ubuntu boots, because I have no network unless I do. Is there a script or something that can do this automatically?

For test purposes I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 from a USB stick with a USB WLAN stick.The system finds the WLAN router and acquires an IP6 address, but no IP4 address.With "dhclient wlan0" though it does get an IP4 address and connects o.k.How do I setup the system so that this dhclient call is done by the system at startup (or whenever it is necessary)?

I have a simple server running Ubuntu Server. Usually the server connects to the network by Wifi, so there is usually no cable connected to the Ethernet port. I noticed that there is a dhclient3 running on eth0 anyway. It is causing undesirable disk activity. Obviously, it is never going to get a response as long as no cable is connected. I can kill the responsible process manually, but I wonder first what is starting the process and how I can prevent it from being started. If there is a way to get the server to boot without starting this process, I wonder whether this is the right solution. Connecting to the network by Ethernet is the failsafe when Wifi doesn't work. I guess what I would like to see would be a way for the server to detect when eth0 does not have a cable connected and not start dhclient in that case, but to activate dhclient when a cable is connected.

i've configured the machine to use a static ip yet dhclient still runs and obtains an ip. what needs to be done to stop this? it has to be something i can put in a script since i have written a setup script to run on several machines. this setup script creates/modifies several files with a few key ones shown below:
/etc/sysconfig/network
Quote:
HOSTNAME=csec7154
NETWORKING=yes
NISDOMAIN=csma
NTPSERVERARGS=iburst
[code]....
and the files, hosts, resolv.conf, network and ifcfg-eth0 in the /etc/sysconfig/networking/profiles/default directory all link to their respective files as does /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth0. thanx!

I used ssh to log into my sever that I had and I from there I ran the command dhclient eth by mistake on the server but the serve had an static IP address. Unfortunately I can't ssh back into the server anymore! It replies back with No route not host. Now my questions are. First of all how do I change it back into the previous setting? Secondly, can I do this remotely since the server is in another place and I don't have access to it right now or do I have to go there and sit behind it and play around with it there?

I need to obtain daily dynamic IP address from my router for remote user. In order to get into the router page, I need to login to it with ID and password.
Can I tell the server to do this every time it started up to login to router and extract the ip address and send out via email?
The router can only access through web interface and below is what I copied from browser.

On my PC (fresh FC11 i386 instllataion from CDs), dhclient doesn't work. When it tries to get an IP address with dhclient, it gets No DHCPOFFERS reveived and fails. The ethernet of my PC works fine - I can manually set IP address, netmask, gateway etc. to connect to my persoal Linksys router, but if I change to DHCP, it fails as above. So it's not the problem of the ethernet driver of FC11. I suspect that dhclient of FC11 is buggy. (For the record, DHCP works fine on FC10 and Windows XP with my Linksys router.)

I am trying to install dhcp server on F12 with yum, but at the time I issue yum install dhcp, I got the following message:

And I see that if I uninstall the dhclient package, I will lose my networkmanager, which I also need, is there a way to have a dhcp server as well as dhclient utility on fedora as it is possible on rhel?

Latest FC12 update included dhclient-4.1.1-9.fc12 which fails to configure eth0 after restarting the computer. Had to remove/downgrade to 4.1.0* (and reinstall dracut and NetworkManager(-glib)). There is no config file in /etc/dhcp/dhclient.d so I don't know how to reset dhcp/eth0 to connect. Thought some one smarter than me might have noticed this by now and worked out a solution. Can't tell that anything in Bugzilla sounds like my problem. Might only be x86_64 or KDE-4.4 problem as my 32-bit Gnome install is not affected. Easy enough to grab the rpms, just annoying. Still haven't learned how to keep a package at version x.x with Fedora yet but that's another topic.

I get assigned an IP from the university's server. Every now and then, a student will plug in his router to the network trying to get wifi in his/her room.
And by doing so will start assigning IPs on the network, while rendering useless the university dhcp server, which has to cope with a higher number of pc's.
How can I specify to dhclient (or the linux system in general) NOT TO obtain IP addresses given by a specific mac address ?

Because of the configuration of my house, I need two routers.I have a DLink ADSL router as my main router and the Belkin N1 as my repeater.I have set up the IP address in the Belkin to be 10.1.1.10 - my DLink is 10.1.1.1. I have disable the dhcp in the Belkin and set the DNS as ISP provided. [URL]..I have set the channel to 11 and in the Ubuntu Network Manger I have set the IPV4 to Link Local Only. I can see the Belkin and connect with my PC.but it will not take me through to the internet.

I want to set up a Linux box as a wireless router to replace our existing Netgear WNR1000 router, as I believe the Netgear does not support the coming IPv6 protocol. Unfortunately, it is not flashable with OpenWRT or DD-WRT presently.
As we have Comcast, our cable modem acts as a dumb modem according to the customer support guy I talked to, and our router is the one that asks for the IP address from DHCP. Thus, when Comcast switches over to IPv6, I don't believe my existing router would work, correct?
My idea is to take a Linux box and put two NICs and a wireless adapter in it, using IPCop or Smoothwall to set up a router. I could then enable IPv6 support for when we have IPv6 with Comcast. Is that possible? Would there be a way to get BIND to hand out private IP addresses in the same subnet on the both the LAN NIC and the wireless card?
