I would like to create several aliases to eth0, but have the addresses assigned by DHCP instead of being set to static IP's. Is this even possible? All the examples I've seen assign a static IP using the command:
ifconfig eth0:0 192.168.1.11 up
I am just trying to get SSH working between 2 local machines on OpensSuse 11.4 boxes. I have the SSHD daemon running, the firewall is configured to allow SSH to pass, and I am using SSH's password authentication. However, my machines cannot see each other. Anytime I try to SSH, I get "Could not resolve hostname<hostname>: Name or service not known."
Of course, that leads me to believe I need an entry in my /etc/hosts file. However, I use DHCP, and therefore have a dynamic IP address. Therefore, my hosts names will only be good until the next IP renewal. How in the world do I configure SSH with a DHCP assigned address?
I just installed Fedora 13 on my ESX box.I have Fedora 13 Machine which was early having 1 network adapter.I added a new Interface type: e1000 to this VM.Now,My ifconfig says:
Code:
[root@fedora-13 ~]# ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:50:56:BA:00:15
inet6 addr: fe80::250:56ff:feba:15/64 Scope:Link
All i was trying to provide IP to eth0 and eth1 through dhcp.is it possible to provide two IP address to eth0 and eth1 both through DHCP.
how to display status of assigned & free ip addresses in a DHCP range assuming that i am working on a DHCP server ?

I have to change my MAC address in order to get an IP lease via DHCP. But almost no installer CDs have ifconfig and dhclient.
ifconfig eth0 down
ifconfig eth0 hw ether 00:22:15:C0:27:23
ifconfig eth0 up
dhclient eth0
Is there any way to change a MAC address within Debian or Ubuntu installer CDs?
This should be simple, but the machines we ssh into don't seem to have the regular commands.Are there any other simple ways I can use to get my IP?
View 7 Replies View Relatedwhere are the interface configurations (set by ifconfig, not the static ones) stored? I'm asking because I'm trying to understand, more broadly, the order of IP address lookup. If I ping the local machine (localhost, or one of the interfaces) no messages get sent out (at least according to wireshark), so some local lookup must be taking place.

I set staticIP at /etc/network/interfaces.
When I stop/start vm(not restart), dhclient becomes up and ip is assigned by dhcp. Why?

I'm trying to tighten up my network a bit. I've given my dhcp server a list of static mac addresses and ip's for computers i know, and a very short range of dhcp addresses that are redirected to kittenwar.My dilemma is that if someone has my wireless network password, or an ethernet cable, they could set the ip address manually and gain access.how can i deny them this pleasure?im running dhcpd3, and iptables on a debian/lenny intel 2.4 box. dd-wrt is running in a linksys wrt54g and is handling the wireless security

The server reports eBox141 dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from 00:0c:29:3e:57:a3 (openSUSE11232CL1.domain.net) via eth0
eBox141 dhcpd: DHCPOFFER on 10.45.200.2 to 00:0c:29:3e:57:a3 (openSUSE11232CL1.domain.net) via eth0
I interpret this as the server receives the request and the client accepting it but the lease does not last long and the connection breaks. what this could be and why the connection breaks? Or my undestanding is totally wrong on how it works and should work? And BTW, where is that README file that's referenced in the message I receive on the client?

How to find the Address which is already in 2632 port?
View 1 Replies View RelatedVersion 10.04 LTS. Installed desktop version and network worked but I needed a static IP address and the install configures for a DHCP configured address. I tried changing to static address using the System->Preferences->Network Connections application but was unable to get the system to come up with the network up.
So I manually modified the /etc/network/interfaces and the /etc/resolv.conf files. I restart the system but when I do an ifconfig, I don't see a configured IP address on eth0 (only the loopback address). If I run /sbin/ifup eth0 everything then works fine and ifconfig shows the correct address bound to eth0.
My files are as follows:
I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 and I'm having problems trying to assign it a static IP address. No matter what I put in the Preferences->Networking area (identifying the interface as Manual)... it still will query DHCP for an address if I run the dhclient command. I'm using to using ubuntu server where I just set the IP in the interfaces config file.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to grok a problem I'm having with an embedded machine. I'm pretty sure I can track down the larger problem, but I came across a usage of ifconfig that I don't understand, and I'm pretty sure this is the command that is failing.
The command is: ifconfig eth0 192.168.78.20:9134
I understand how ifconfig works. What I don't understand is the :9134. I can't see anything in the docs about what this means. I know in most contexts it's a port number, but what does it do when bringing up a network interface? Does it limit it to only using port 9134?
I am trying to find IP address. In a socket programming tutorial, I found :
Code:
$ nslookup localhost
command. It gives me a address. However, one colleague told me :
Code:

i have a big problem y have to make an alias for the eth0 interface, i made it with yast and my alias was eth0:1, first, if i try to shutdown the interface i cant it give an error and tell me that the interface dont exist and the second threat is if i can put a default gateway for this alias something like this in other distributions:

I have an HP Pavilion A6750F with an AMD Phenom 9650 Quad Core. 8 GB memoryThe NIC is a REALTEC Semiconductor RLT8111/81688 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller.The actual MAC address for the NIC is 00:24:21:55:DE:40I have loaded CentOS 5.3 on this host three of four times in various configurations and patching levels.THE PROBLEM: The system identifies the NIC as having MAC FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF.When this happens, the network connectivity obviously stops working.It identifies everything else OK, just maps the wrong MAC.I'm no sure how to troubleshoot this problem. I tried rebooting a couple times and once that fixed it. Usually it does not. I reloaded (gasp) Windows Vista on it and it worked ok.This last time, I reloaded CentOS it hung on the bootup (ASK ??), I reset it, it rebooted and everything looks ok; for now.
The system says it is presently using driver r8169
First, (for samba) how do I determine whether my computer "gets IP address information from a dhcp server on the network," and whether "the dhcp server provides info about WINS servers ("NetBIOS name servers") present on the network," and consequently whether a change to my smb.conf file, "so that DHCP-provided WINS settings will automatically be read from /etc/samba/dhcp.conf," and whether the dhcp3-client package must be installed?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI set up a dhcp server in the lan and assigned static ips to two computers, computer A and B, according to their mac address. Everything was running fine. But when I turned off computer A, connected computer C to the network, and assigned computer A's static ip to computer C without changing dhcp setting. Computer C was able to access the internet. When I turned on computer A, dhcp couldn't assign an ip address to it, and computer C showed an error message of ip conflict and failed to use internet. I wonder if dhcp server is able to prevent other computer from using the same static ip that is already assigned to a computer according to its mac address.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am struggling with what might be a minor problem. I have a home computer which I would like to setup as a webserver and hence give it a static IP address. It is connected to by wire to a router that is connected to the WAN via PPPOE. If I enable the network card on DHCP it works fine in browsing the web. If I now set it to static IP address it does not brown. Essentially I use the command setup to run the static IP setup. I then set my IP address to 192.168.254.X , the subnet mask 255.255.255.0 and the default gateway to 192.168.254.1 (this is the router connected to the WAN). I am able to ping the router, however when I try and browse on static it does not work. Your help will be most appreciated as this has taken way too long to solve and I have Googled as much without success.
