Networking :: Lost Network Only Between Two Boxes

Oct 23, 2010

I can't think of any obvious reason. I have two Ubuntu 10.04 machines. Each has a two disc RAID array for redundancy. Both are on my class C network (192.168.1.3 and 192.168.1.5). Both can access internet through router and I can "reach" each with a windows laptop (I can ping, login via SSH, reach webmin, SAMBA, etc). However, all the sudden, I cannot reach either linux box from the other linux box. It fails "both ways," meaning I can neither ping, login via SSH, use a SAMBA resource or in any way see the "other" linux box from one. This seemed to occur about two weeks ago (maybe after an update?). I've been using Unison to sync the RAID arrays - but not, I cannot sync at all. The only thing I could think of is to check hosts.deny (and allow) which are distribution default (unchanged)...

If I traceroute to the router, I get "1 XXXXX (192.168.1.1) 0.543 ms 1.217 ms 1.204 ms." However, if I try it to the other linux box, I get "3001.294 ms !H 2001.280 ms !H 3001.264 ms !H" which evidently means host unreachable. So it can get to the router (which has the windows box which can see both linux boxes). I just can't think of any reason why/how this could happen? Not sure how what is wrong with hosts file (I have made no changes and it accepts ping/ssh, etc from windows machine). Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Ubuntu Networking :: Network Not Visible In Dialogue Boxes

Oct 12, 2010

I've set up Samba under Ubuntu for windows SMB file sharing (currently unauthenticated but soon to be backed off against A.D.) This is great within Windows where l folders are available as mounted in all applications but from my Ubuntu desktop and Ubuntu laptops, we can only access network folders and files from the File browsers and bookmarks one finds in the "Places" menu. Our issue is that most (but not all) dialogue boxes don't have any options for viewing non-local files and folders. i.e. when I'm in my web browser and I go to upload a file from our local network file server to an internet location, the "Open" dialogue box cannot see any of our local network locations.

Networking :: Server Can't Ping Other Boxes On Private Network

Jul 27, 2011

I run a server that is connected to several other boxes in a private network (192.168.0.0). I have had no problems previously, but upon a reinstall of Debian squeeze I have no connectivity to the private network: a ping of other addresses on that network fail. Ping and connection to outside world is fine. This box is configured similarly to another on this private network which connects successfully. I have quadruple-checked all my basic information. I post my ifconfig below of the malfunctioning device, then the ifconfig for equivalent nic on a box connected succesfully to the private network.

Questions:

1.Could it be a cable problem? (I don't see how since the cables have not been changed I do not believe since my reinstallation).

2. What about the difference in the last lines of eth1 below and eth2 of the successful box. Is it significant that the bad eth1 reads Memory:fc3a0000-fc3c0000

Ubuntu Networking :: Can Browse Windows Network / But Not Other Linux Boxes

Mar 29, 2010

I noticed tonight when I go to Places, Network, it will bring up an icon for Windows Network, and I can drill down to my Windows box. But I can't see the other Linux box (a laptop running Kubuntu), and the same behavior occurs on the laptop when trying to view the Linux desktop. The laptop is connected wirelessly, if that makes a difference. Each box can ping the others, but I don't yet know how to browse one Linux box from the other Linux box.

CentOS 5 Networking :: Boxes Appear To Be Limited At ~10kb/s When Connecting To Any FTP Server Outside Of Our Network

Jul 13, 2010

I'm having a bizarre problem with FTP transfers from my CentOS 5.3 boxes, All of my CentOS boxes appear to be limited at ~10kb/s when connecting to any FTP server outside of our network. We have no network infrastructure which would cause this, however when I use a windows based machine it is able to connect fine.

I took my laptop running Vista, and rebooted it onto a CentOS 5.3 LiveCD, and same issue.

I have checked our iptables, cleared the rules, removed the kernel modules, checked CBQ/TC it looks like nothing is limiting this. Also, other protocols work fine. Both the windows and linux boxes used passive transfers for it.

Is there anything other than iptables/CBQ which would be on a out of the box install of CentOS I should check? Is there any kernel settings for NAT connections which may cause this?

Ubuntu Networking :: Lost Network Between Laptop And PC?

Dec 2, 2010

My latop has suddenly lost it's ability to see my main computer. I have changed nothing other than updates and a few non-network related program installs. The laptop is an HP Pavillion DM3 running 10.10 and the PC is a Dell XPS400 running 10.04.01. I have both Samba and folder sharing in use. I have checked all the permissions etc on the shares and in Samba and everything is as it was and should be. So I am confused. How do I get it back and why did it go away?

Ubuntu Networking :: Lost Network Settings

Mar 25, 2011

My first post. I lost all connections to the internet on my Linux Box Yesterday. I have checked my broadband connection and router. OK because I am using them to sent this from my laptop. I have 2 ethernet cards - no indication of a problem with either so I suspect for reasons unknown I have lost all my network settings. The Desktop User Guide says go to the Network Settings Window. I used to have a widget on the Menu Bar which enabled me to check the settings but for some reason it vanished a month or so ago and I can't find how to get it back.

PS In the meantime I am stuck with this crummy Microsoft box the interferes with everything I try to do.

Ubuntu Networking :: Lost Connection To Network Printer - Re-establish It?

Feb 12, 2011

I have had long term access to a networked HP Photosmart printer but now I get the following message:

Unable to open device hp:/net/Photosmart_C5100_series?ip=192.168.0.161.

when trying to access it.The ubuntu desktop is wired to the router as is the printer and another iMac wirelessly can still print to the HP. HPLIP status shows the icon for the printer but with a red x indicating no connection to it.The only recent network change was the removal of another router from our network. (service is DSL via a combo modem/router from service provider which previously was connected to a Dlink router which has now been removed from the chain b/c was redundant to the modem/router)

Ubuntu Networking :: When Switch Rebooted Network Connection Lost?

Apr 19, 2010

When there is a power failure at my university for about 30 minute, my computer stays up because of a UPS, but the switch it is connected to via ethernet is reset. After this, my machine loses network connectivity until I manually select the network using nm-applet.

In System -> Preferences -> Network Connections, the network has the "Connect automatically" box checked.

However, in /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf, there is a line that says:

Code:
no-auto-default=00:30:48:b0:11:07,
and that is the MAC address of the ethernet card.

I'm running Ubuntu jaunty.

Ubuntu Networking :: Wired Network Settings Lost On Reboot

Jul 30, 2010

I have installed Lucid in a new laptop. Things are running OK except for the following problem:

I connect to the network/Internet using Wired ethernet (TCP/IP) with static IP. Everytime I reboot/restart my network configurations are lost and I have to re-configure. I have googled this problem and have seen a few posts/bugs in launchpad etc. for what appears to be the same issue...but unfortunately I am not getting a clear solution to this problem.

Just for clarity, I am using the following commands to re-configure my network everytime:

Also note that I have already tried editing the /etc/network/interfaces and the /etc/resolv.conf files. But it seems that these are not being picked or are being overridden.

Ubuntu Networking :: Lost Wired Network Connection After Installing 10.04?

I had some problems installing 10.04, which I'm not going into here unless I have to, but it appears to be up and running now except my PC can't access the network, even though it's wired. This is the first time I've tried putting on a new build by myself as my son always used to do it (my PC used to belong to him many years ago, and is old, like me.)

Ubuntu Networking :: Machine Lost Controls Over Network Cards

Jan 14, 2011

I'm running xubuntu 10.04 LTS (upgraded from 8.04 LTS) on an old low power sempron machine as an always on 'internet machine' i.e. it does all my downloading email etc. and up until yesterday it has always performed flawlessly. Yesterday wasn't its fault, it was a BTI network problem that took out my internet service but while talking to tech support I realized that this machine has lost all ways to control the network cards. Network-manager and network-manager-gnome are installed according to synaptic but they have no menu or notification appearance. I've tried reinstalling them to no avail.

Ubuntu :: Can't Ping Boxes On Windows Network

Jul 6, 2011

I'm setting up an Ubuntu-based kiosk for my organization, and I can't seem to ping it by its hostname. The network is an Active Directory domain.

I tried editing /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf (I filled in the hostname where it said <hostname>), but no dice.

I also tried editing /etc/network/interfaces (the machine authenticates via DHCP but its network configuration is manually specified -- can't have users messing with NetworkManager):

Code:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
hostname <the computer's hostname here>

Finally, I tried joining it to the domain using likewise-open, and while it shows up in Active Directory, I still can't ping it.

Slackware :: Failing To SSH Between Boxes On Same Wireless Network

Feb 7, 2011

I've got a Linksys WRT54G router with the latest firmware. I've got an HP laptop connecting wirelessly and my main box connecting wirelessly with a Linksys WMP54G card. (As an aside, I used to have another box too with the same wireless card). Both are set up with a static IP. Both can access the Internet just fine. The router is on the main floor. My main box is in the basement. Both boxes are running fully patched versions of Slackware64 13.1. sshd is running on both.

I like to ssh into the other box when there's a security update or to copy a file from one computer to the other, etc. The problem is that I can't do that all the time. Even if the laptop is connected to the network and accessing the Internet, on my main box ssh will still "say ssh: connect to host ***** port 22: No route to host". It is my understanding that if I ssh in, it is accessing the other computer directly and not going through the router. What would cause this? Even if I bring the laptop within four feet of my computer, it still can't connect.

There doesn't seem to be a rhyme or reason to when it will connect and when it wont. Sometimes I can access it just fine then about five minutes later I can't.

Ubuntu Networking :: Lost Desktop Icon For Mounted Network Share

Jan 19, 2010

I have suddenly lost the desktop icon (of a hard drive) for a mounted network share. It is funny because, I have other network mounts which share the same server, and there icons are appearing, and this particular share just does not show up with the icon, even if I try mounting it different locations in the filesystem. Any ideas. I really like those cute icons on my desktop.

OpenSUSE Network :: File Sharing Between Two SuSE Boxes

Will I need to create logon IDs to the desktop to share files (and even the printer?).

Software :: Create A Network Logical Volume Based On The Individual HDs And Visible To All Boxes?

Aug 11, 2010

i've been an intermediate-level linux user for some years, and now i'm supposed to set up and manage a small network for our research group. we have 5 linux boxes with ubuntu 10.04 (actually i'm installing everything we need in one box and will attempt to clone the others with clonezilla). i've 2 questions:

1) i'd like to manage all user accounts from one pc (server? so to say), so that every user can log in any of the 5 machines with the same passwd etc. what is the best/easiest/most stable application/protocol to manage this?

2) is it possible to create a network logical volume, based on the individual HDs and visible to all boxes? something like a RAID0 over ethernet?

Networking :: Different Boxes Connected To Each Of 5 Ports On The Box?

Apr 23, 2010

I have a box with 6 Ethernet ports. One is the main connection to the box, and the remaining are for connecting to one host each (1-1, ie, 5 different boxes connected to each of 5 ports on the box). I setup a static route to each of the hosts, and it worked. But, now it just doesn't work. There are no firewalls, etc.

Box_A: 10.2.1.200 (going to the switch to outside).It has 5 other ports: port1 (10.2.1.11) <----> Host1: 10.2.1.20 port5 (10.2.1.15) <----> Host5: 10.2.1.25 If I do, ping -I eth1 10.2.1.20, from Box_A it doesn't work. But, it used to work.

Ubuntu Networking :: Nfs And Sharing Users Between Boxes

Oct 18, 2010

Ubuntu 9.10 So I have four boxes. One has all the users on it and it is the nfs-server. The other 3 are nfs-clients. I need to be able to share all users between the boxes. I have mounted the /home directory from the server onto the three clients as well as the /usr/local folder, however I am still unable to log in as anybody but the root on the clients.

I am not even sure how to search for this (I keep getting results on how to mount the home directory, and information about adding multiple users to a single box).
