Networking :: RHEL 5.4 Can't Reach Any External Host Or Even Ping Localhost
May 27, 2010
This is a RHEL 5.4 install. I did a fairly routine install setting up a static IP address of 10.5.96.10, a subnet mask of 255.255.254.0, and a gateway of 10.5.96.1 with the standard DNS setup for this network. These are all standard network setting for this network and otherwise work fine on other systems. The IP, gateway, and subnetmask all appear correctly on all relevant configuration files. This server can not ping any other system on the network and can not ping its default gateway. No other systems can ping this one either. Also this system can not ping "localhost" or its own hostname. The hosts file contains the line:
[code]...
I can ping 127.0.0.1 and 10.5.96.10 and it works fine. Also the firewall is disabled. I know I probably can't get a straight forward fix with the information I have on hand right now, I'm more of a Debian guy, so there might be some Red Hat intricacies I'm not familiar with. I think I had a CentOS install some months back that had this issue and I don't remember how I fixed it, or if I even did. I might have just replaced it with Debian. That's unfortunately not an option this time around since it's not my box.

I can ping a host on my LAN successfully, but I cannot ping [URL]... for example. I have disabled the firewall and set http_proxy and can browse the internet with "Use system proxy settings" checked in Firefox. I am unable to update with yum either, but I am not sure if this is a side effect or not. I have run a trace on my ip address as I am browsing the internet and I can see the sites I am visiting on our web appliance. However, if I try to ping or update no requests are hitting the proxy so I don't think that is the issue.

I recently set up an Ubuntu server computer (10.04) with the hostname 'morbo', and with a static IP address. With all my other ubuntu systems i can ping and ssh using their host names, like:
[code]...
i can't reach it via 'morbo.local' nor can i reach my other ubuntu systems from morbo by their hostnames. I have seen a 'quick and dirty' solution which might help here : [URL]... , but i don't want to have to add every system to morbo's list and morbo to every systems list, and because it works without manual configuration on all my other systems, i don't see why it shouldn't be possible here. Currently everything connects to one d-link router - does this mean it is the DNS server?

I am running a server that needs both a wired and wireless connection with static IPs, with wireless as the default link. I'm using the SMCWUSB-G for wireless. I was running Debian for a while and had some routing tables set up as in [URL].... Everything worked until I recently switched to Ubuntu Server 9.10. After the switch a weird behavior showed up: if wlan0 is down, eth0 works fine. But if wlan0 is up, I can't reach any host with either interface (even nameservers or the gateway I am supposedly connected to). ifconfig indicates that nothing is wrong. It's really not clear what is causing this problem. It seems like something has to be wrong with both the wireless hardware/drivers and the routing tables in order for turning wireless on to interfere with "ping -Ieth0".

I've set up ubuntu server 10.04 x64 with kvm and bridged networking and installed win server 2008 as a guest os. The guest os has full access to the network including lan/wan but the host os can only reach my lan and not the wan. This is true even when the guest machine is powered off?I have to admit that my knowledge of networking, particularly with respect to linux is very flakey but surely if the guest has internet access this should also apply to the host? My only suggestion is an issue with mac addresses but i don't know where to start. Has anybody ran into this problem before?

Recently I've been unable to load web pages, hosted on my Ubuntu Guest in Apache, from my OSX Host. In fact, I can no longer even ping the Guest OS from the Host. In the past, when I did ifconfig on the Guest, I got an IP of 10.0.1.n. Now I'm getting 10.0.2.15--the default NAT Address. The thing is, I didn't change any settings recently. What I did do is run software update for OSX, Ubuntu, and updated VirtBox.
Current Versions:
VirtBox 4.0.8 r71778
Host: OSX 10.6.7
Guest: Ubuntu 11.04
why I can no longer access my Guest OS from my Host? I spent hours on this last night, to no avail. What would cause the Guest IP to change from 10.0.1.n to 10.0.2.15? As I say, I manually made no config changes.

I'm having trouble pinging localhost, specifically, pinging localhost when I'm not connected to a network. When I try it keeps telling me the operation is not permitted:
Code:
matt@mubuntu:~$ ping localhost
PING localhost (127.0.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted
ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted
if I connect to the network, start pinging then disconnect it continues pinging. Google seems to think it could be something to do with my iptables setup:
Code:
matt@mubuntu:~$ sudo iptables -L
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
[code]....
When not connected to network
Code:
matt@mubuntu:~$ route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo
But as far as I can tell there isn't anything in there which would stop me connecting to the localhost (I also can't connect to my local apache instance when offline)... (It's worth mentioning that a couple of weeks ago I had the pc setup to share it's internet connection with a laptop, ala this guide, however I've since disabled the iptables rules and disabled ip forwarding.)

Can anybody tell me why is this happening. and am also using Promiscuous mode so non of the packet is discarding.

I have a server that I can ping, and I can connect remotely with ssh to it. But when I try to connect to apache (port 80) I get "no route to host". But I can connect to localhost It's not just my client system that is having this problem but also systems that are on the same subnet There is no firewall running on the server route on the server

I am using ubuntu 9.10 and I still cannot figure out this thing. I work behind a proxy managed by my university. Now, I cannot ping the other users on my network although they can ping me. Not to mention, I also cannot ping [URL]... It says : ping: unknown host [URL]... But I can ping the proxy server.

I have a somewhat complicated network setup that I am testing on an internal network. I have the following route setup:
PC Client (192.168.2.100) --> Router (192.168.2.1) --> DSLAM (on our internal network) --> PPPOE Server (192.168.9.1) on Linux Ubuntu 8.04 on interface card eth2.
On the same Linux Ubuntu Machine on interface card eth1 (static IP 192.168.5.100), I have an Asterisk SIP server plugged into it. SIP Server = 192.168.5.101 (static) I need the PC client (192.168.2.100) to register via SIP soft phone to register on the SIP server (192.168.5.101). From the PC client I can ping as far as the eth1 interface (192.168.5.100)...but cannot ping the SIP Server (.101).
From the SIP server (192.156.5.101)...I can ping 192.168.5.100, I can ping 169.254.5.228 (Eth2:avahi), but not sure what that is. I cannot ping the pppoe default gateway (192.168.9.1), which I think you cannot anyway. No firewalls are running. My IPtables I cleaned out totally. I think it might be as simple as a route add, but I really have no clue. Tried building a virtual bridge using brctl LINUX betweeh eth1 and eth2, but that made things worse (could not ping anything after that)
Route table:
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
192.168.9.100 * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0
192.168.5.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth1

If I try ping a host on my internal lan from my ubuntu notebook the host name never resolves, but if I ping www.domainname.xxx it will resolve because our dhcp server is setup as the dns server too. If I use the connect to server tool and select samba share and specify host by name, it can resolve that and the shares show up... same dns server, same machine, but different interface/program. My real reason behind this is because my synergy+ keeps falling over whenever the synergy servers dhcp lease expires and it gets a new I have to then specify the new address and change configs.

I am working behind a http proxy (172.30.x.x:3128). I have configured it in my terminal. All the applications such as wget,lynx firefox etc. are working correctly.However all dns utilities like nslookup, host and even ping too are not working.Following is output of host command:
Code:
root@ding:~# host google.com
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached
Output of host -T:
[Code]....
To connect to net I have to first run dhclient3(learnt from this forum!).It gives me my ip but where is dns address sent I don't have and idea.

I have a machine running linux with 3 ethernet interfaces attached.
My Ifconfig:
My route output:
eth0 is attached to a laptop, eth1 is attached to a PC. eth2 is attached to a DSL modem, and the server is successfully acting as my internet gateway. The trouble is, my PC cannot see my laptop and vice versa. E.G. cannot ping, host seems down.

I am trying to turn an old desktop that has slackware 12.2 installed on it into a dhcp server that performs nat on a certain range of the subnet... the server's hostname is nutshell. Once I have it set up, I am testing it with a slackware64-13.1 laptop whose hostname is firebolt. Nutshell has a static ip. Before messing with the DHCP side of things, I thought I would start with getting NAT working. The steps I have taken are as follows:
I modified the /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf script so that the interfaces would be setup on boot. Eth0 has ISP's static ip assigned to it, and I assigned 172.0.0.1 to eth1. I opened the box as wide as possible, so that former firewalls and security settings would not interfere. The contents of /etc/hosts.allow is All:All, and /etc/hosts.deny is an empty file. The firewall is set to allow everything, i.e., iptables -L has "ACCEPT" as default policy on all chains. Next I used iptables to start nat with the command:
[code]...
I can ping external ips from firebolt, so the NAT appears to be working properly. I fire up x-windows and surf a little. While I am surfing it freezes. Checking the pings again, suddenly firebolt cannot ping isp's dns anymore. Checking on nutshell, it can no longer ping external ips either. However, after running /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1 restart on nutshell, all is well, and it is pinging out again. I go back to firebolt and resume my surfing.

A brief description of my network:It is a small home network consisting of an Ubuntu 10.04LTS server edition, an Iomega ix2 NAS, a WinXP pro server and several family laptops.This is all routed through a Netgear WNDR3300 home router. All are assigned IP's via DHCP and all but the laptops are static (via DHCP though). The WAN address/DNS is assigned via DHCP from my ISP.The problem:When one of the machines is offline, Ubuntu does not resolve the netbios name correctly. No surprise here. But what is happening is that it is finding some arbitrary machine on another network. Below is what a ping to an offline host reveals:
Code:
ping -c3 hostname
PING hostname (204.232.162.92) 56(84) bytes of data.

Since I installed FC11 I can't get vpnc to work (I always getno response from target").Also I can't ping any external IP even with the firewall disabled.What I see strange is that I had the same configuration in FC10 and the router configuration seems okay to me:
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
10.64.64.64 * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0

I am using an virtual machine. where I need to ping from one machine to another. earlier I was able to ping. But after going to google.com once, I cannot ping back to this machine.
But if I gave ping -I eth1 <IP> then I can ping.
I cannot install any package, so tell me solution which includes not installing any package.

I have set up my guest OS in VirtualBox so that it has a static ip and is using a bridged adapter. As a result, I can see the webserver that's hosted in guest from my host OS's web browser. However, for some reason my current setup does not allow my guest to reach the internet. What settings do I need to enable both?

I am a newbie in Linux. I have Fedora 13 OS 32 bits. I am working with PowerDNs and Poweradmin. How can I configure this with PowerDNS?
1. Allow localhost recursion but deny recursion to external clients. Is there a tutorial for that?
2. Set up cache nameserver for localhost (like caching-nameserver in Bind).
Is there a tutorial for that?
3. My Master Server with PowerDNS is working well from localhost but external clients cannot access it.
I have iptables with these rules:
