I just upgraded to Ubuntu 11.0.4 (from 10). In my /etc/hostname file, I defined my machine's name, "my-machine". From the server, I'm able to SSH to myself,
ssh dave@my-machine
However, from another machine in the same network, I'm not able to SSH
Code:
davea-mbp2:systems davea$ ssh dave@my-machine
ssh: Could not resolve hostname my-machine: nodename nor servname provided, or not known
However, I'm able to SSH in using the machine's IP address. how I get my machine name recognized on the network?
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.
I setup a private network from virtual machines and one of the machines is the DHCP server for the group. I want to specify a next-server for the DHCP server but I'm having trouble connecting to any of the machines that I lease IPs to. I'm just trying to do a simple ping/ssh to 10.0.0.252 (a machine with a lease) but it doesn't seem to respond. I'm assuming I need to be able to connect to my next-server but maybe I'm wrong.
View 1 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.

first LAN is another companies network on the 10.0.0.0 network a mix of pc's and equipment
second is LAN new company network 192.168.168.0/24
third network is an ip phone system for both i would like to use 192.168.200.0/24
i am hoping to use the same dhcp server to do this, assigning address to the old company's 10. network via mac address reservation.
I want to setup 1Gbps our lab network and we purchased 'Buffulo Giga layer switch ' with 24ports. Is there a way to tell DHCP to assign specific IP to a particular MAC address of a machine ? We want to use DHCP and whatever the port we use ,it should have same IP ..

I wonder are there (or better yet here actually) Linux users, that where never 'tainted' with the proprietary infamous operating system? I mean those who never *switched*, but had either both or saw Linux first (before MS Windows).
How do they perceive Linux? We , the ones coming from <put whatever You come from here> , are inevitably biased, carry a background noise and a "whistle" fading in our ears. I know computers from the days they came without operating system (just mere interpreters upon a BIOS stack) and really do appreciate the ways of *NIX. But I see my kids growing and exploring all kinds of "solutions" and OS-es and they have mixed feelings:
1. They are not bothered if software "looks" alike if it is functional
2. They like certain features on either sides and miss where they lack
3. They, above all, appreciate functionality
4. They miss gaming support on Linux a lot (big names hesitating)
remove the thread after some one tells me.

View 1 Replies View RelatedBack in April I set up a Ubuntu DHCP server and a multiple VLAN network [URL] to migrate our various servers, workstations, etc off the 192.168.1.1 /24 network that everything was on because we where running out of address space. I built out the new network and everything worked great except our AD server would never get an IP address from the DHCP server (static reservation) and even if I set the IP statically on the AD server it couldn't ping the gateway and noone could log in. After several attempts to resolve this, including bringing in outside help, we where never able to figure out what the problem was.
Now 6 months later I have time to revisit the issue without effecting the live network. I used Acronis and imaged the AD server last Friday, cloned it on to another box with the same hardware, and put it up on the new network that's been sitting unused for the last 6 months. Today when I statically set the IP on the AD server (which is what I want) it connects and I can ping it's gateway 192.168.1.1 and all the way across vlans to a test sales agent workstation at 192.168.8.xxx on vlan 800 but only if I statically assign the agents station an IP address. When I try to get an IP address via DHCP it fails as destination unreachable. Nothing has changed in the last 6 months on the DHCP server but now it for some reason can't ping its default gateway 192.168.1.1. All of the config files are the same as they where left from the post linked above aside from the vlan id's used where changed from 1's to 100's (i.e. vlan 3 is now vlan 300) /etc/network/interfaces
Code:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto vlan100
iface vlan100 inet static
[code]....
why it can't reach the gateway, when I do a tcpdump I can see the DHCP requests come in on eth0 but the server never responds and I'm pretty sure its because it isn't "seeing" them since it thinks there isn't a network connection but I don't know how to trouble shoot to find out where the problem lies.

I am puzzled with trying to configure a linux (openSUSE) client to dhcp to eBox DHCP server. I am using dhclient to lease an IP address with dhclient eth0 -s 10.45.48.108 and get a response
openSUSE11232CL1 dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 10.45.48.108 port 67 interval 4
openSUSE11232CL1 dhclient: DHCPOFFER from 10.45.48.108
openSUSE11232CL1 dhclient: DHCPREQUEST on eth0 to 10.45.48.108 port 67
openSUSE11232CL1 dhclient: send_packet: Network is unreachable
openSUSE11232CL1 dhclient: send_packet: please consult README file regarding broadcast address.
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?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an embedded device for which I've created an html configuration page. This page allows you to set static IPs, dhcp, and can scan for wireless devices.My problem is that in order to access the device it requires that it runs as a dhcp server otherwise people are not assigned an IP and so can not access the embedded devices static IP. (This config page is for the laymen and so they are not the type who are able to set up their own static IPs). One of the potential options is to have the device connect to the network on eth0 acting as a dhcp client. However this prevents me from running a dhcp server.One solution I can think of is running a dhcp server only if it doesn't detect another dhcp server running on the network.

Mainly because of the vastness of apt-get and the low risk of installation failure. Anyway, every so often I have a file that I want to process in place using some remote tool. Both machines can ssh right in to each other so I was figuring there must be some script or tool out there that would allow me to type out something like remote [file] [tool & args] to send my file to the other machine, get it processed, then get it back.

View 4 Replies View RelatedIf I have an address, say [URL], and I want to run n number of wgets on it. How can I do this? I'm curious for the reason of checking how wgets caches DNS. Turn off caching of DNS lookups. Normally, Wget remembers the IP addresses it looked up from DNS so it doesn't have to repeatedly contact the DNS server for the same (typically small) set of hosts it retrieves from. This cache exists in memory only; a new Wget run will contact DNS again.
The last part confuses me. "a new Wget run will contact DNS again." This means if I run a for-loop to call wget on an address, it will just make a new call to DNS every time. How do I avoid this?
I had statically set my ip in Linux using:

Now I want it to go back to using DHCP to assign the IP. How do I do that?

I am behind a funny firewall, so that may have something to do with this, but since the problem materialized upon update to F14, I am assuming that this has something to do with it as well. (Both connections are on the internal network, so should not invoke the firewall/proxy, so the firewall issue is probably a red herring.)Since the update, neither evolution-mapi nor evolution-exchange (over OWA) are able to access my email. Here is the error given when using evolution-mapi:
Code:
Unable to authenticate to Exchange MAPI server: file exchange-mapi-connection.c: line 359 (exchange_mapi_connection_new): assertion `profile != NULL' failed Please enter the MAPI

How do I add a emailed contact to evolution? I tried clicking on from but theres no option to add as a contact.
