Networking :: Setting Up Network Card / Eth(n) Pairings, Not Working As Expected?
Mar 12, 2010
I haven't done a great deal of networking with Linux so bear with me if the solution seems obvious.I've got four machines with two Ethernet cards each; one on-board and one PCI. I'm trying to get it set up so that the PCI card is eth0, then the on-board eth1. This.. isn't going as easily as I would have thought. I expected I could just go to network configuration, switch to the "Hardware" tab... change the on-board card to be device eth1, change the PCI to be device eth0... then go to the "Devices" tab and change the nickname to match the device.
This has decidedly not worked at all. Additionally, on some of the machines that I haven't messed with, the device name for the PCI card isn't ethn, it's something like "Intelnnnnn" (some string of numbers that I don't have in front of me). Something more specific to the card I'm sure, but while I can assign that device a nickname, I can't use it.. I can ping -I Intelnnnn ip.add.re.ss, but I can't ping -I eth3 ip.add.re.ess.
Where am I going wrong here? I've looked at a few tutorials online but they look extremely more complicated (read_device_bus_id? qeth device?) than should be necessary for just what I'm trying to do

I had an Ubuntu Server 32 bit installation and everything was working fine. Now that I installed Ubuntu Server 64bit on a new drive in the same machine, the ethernet card is not working!! This is insane cause when I put the hard disk with the 32bit installation back and booting from it, the ethernet card is working without any problems but in the 64bits installation it is not shown at all using "ifconfig -a"
lspci output:
Quote:
02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications AR8151 v1.0 Gigabit Ethernet (rev c0)
How can I check which module is being loaded in the 32bits installation to try to load it manually in the 64 bits installation?

I have a Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5721 network card on my server at work.Everything works fine for a few weeks, then randomly the network connection on the server will stop working. After it stops working, I will try to reconnect with the network manager, it shows a wired connection available, it shows the "connection in progress"animation, then the "connection disabled" icon.
I uninstalled the network manager and used manual configuration, but do you think the network manager was the issue? I can't have the server disconnecting randomly every few weeks with no way to know what the real problem is. Was there an issue with the network manager with 10.04?

On the computer on which I have to login, Shoreline is installed.I know I can add rule to /etc/shoreline/rules but I decided to manually enter an iptable rule by typing:
Quote:
/sbin/iptables -A local2fw -s 10.100.98.74 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT
Then why am I not able to login using 10.100.98.74... I get connection refused error...

I have BroadCom BCM4318 802.11B/G Wireless Card. When I first started Ubuntu a week ago it didn't work, but I fixed it after a day or two of googling it. However I made a mistake and uninstalled the Network Manager. I then reinstalled Ubuntu, but it wouldn't load the card again. I activated the driver, and restarted the computer, but then, since It was connected via Ethernet, it wouldn't reconize the Ethernet connection, but the wireless card it did, but wouldn't find a network that is supported.

I recently installed Ubuntu 10.04 on an older PC and I'm having problems with the network card built into the motherboard. When I connect an ethernet cable into the ethernet port I get a solid amber light, and I can't connect to my router, (which is being directly connected). Nothing is shown in Network Connections, but on another PC with the same version of Ubuntu it shows "Auto eth0", and it works just fine connecting with the router.How do I fix this? I'm an Ubuntu noob so I'm not really sure what to do here.
The network card is an Intel 82547EI Gigabit LAN controller, and Intel's website offered a driver available for my kernel version of Linux. However I was typing everything it told me to do in terminal, (which half the time I have no clue what I'm typing actually means), but I ended up getting some errors towards the end of the install process. I'm not sure if I messed something up or the driver just isn't going to work.
I'm hoping there is an easier fix for this, I've been searching the net all night trying to find someone with a similar problem and I haven't found any. I think I have another ethernet card which I might pop in and see if that works....but I figure I'll most likely run into the same problem because I know for sure the motherboards network card works - has on Windows, I just can't get it working in Ubuntu.

I am trying to set up the wireless with the latest version of Ubuntu. I can connect to the internet with the ethernet but wireless connections do not even show up. My wireless card is a Intel WiFi Link 1000 BGN and perhaps that is the problem. I am not sure if that will work. I am also using VMware and perhaps it just doesn't work with VMware.
When I type in iwlist scan it just comes up with: lo interface does not support scanning and eth0 interface does not support scanning. When I search for available drivers it says no proprietary drivers are in use on this system. Then it has VMware virtual ethernet driver and VMware virtual machine communication interface.

I've been trying to understand how Linux creates the network/interfaces on a machine (been reading the Linux admin guide), but as I'm pretty new to this subject, I've got lost in the forest.
To provide with my goal:
1.) Learn about network setups on Linux
2.) Be able to maintain my own (virtual) network
3.) Configure my (virtual) network

I`m trying to install Intel EXPI9402PT PRO/1000 PT Dual Port Server Adapter on my machine. I download the drivers for this card from intel web page, but I can`t make it work. I`m running OpenSuse 11.3 version. When I tried to install it for the first time I got this message:
Makefile:71: *** Kernel header files not in any of the expected locations.
Makefile:72: *** Install the appropriate kernel development package, e.g.
Makefile:73: *** kernel-devel, for building kernel modules and try again. Stop
Then I install the kernel-source package and I got this one:
Makefile:107: *** Linux kernel source not configured - missing version header file. Stop.
I also installed kernel-devel package, but I get the same message.

I used setfacl to set permissions as follows:
As you can see all settings lead to permissions 777 but that's not what happens. What happens if I say, touch a file, I get: 666 as this shows:
Same for files that are not obviously scripts such as just a.txt.
My umask is 0022.
Does anyone know why this is? Is it changeable for specific directories?
This is a special world viewed directory required by a piece of software... in other words, no, I am not in a habit of setting file permissions to 777 so please no comments about you shouldn't be using such permissions.
Truthfully, I can probably get away with permissions 666 and will if I can but right now I just want to know why it's happening this way and how to control it.

I'm trying to test whether some software that I am using will behave as expected when DST change over occurs. I'm specifically testing it for the GB timezone when it enters British Summer Time (BST) and then reverts to GMT. From the information I have, BST starts: Sunday 28 March 01:00 GMT (02:00 BST)and ends: Sunday 31 October 02:00 BST (01:00 GMT )To do this test I wrote a shell script that sets the date, runs the program, checks some logs and then reverts the time.
Entering BST was fairly straight forward as all I had to do was the following: export TZ=GB
date 032800582010This set the date to be 28th March and the time to be 00:58 in the GB (GMT) timezone. As expected, the date then rolled forward to 02:00 BST. However, when I tried to do the same for coming out of BST into GMT, the time did not work out as expected. export TZ=GB
date 103101582010Setting the time as above put the time straight into GMT and not BST even though it was two minutes before the time should have rolled-over.
However if I put the following: export TZ=GB
date 103100582010the date was reported as BST!
How can I setup the time so that I don't have to wait for hour before BST ends?

I just installed Fedora again, after a long absence. I have been using XP. I am having issues setting up my wireless card Linksys WMP54G. For some reason the card has been recognized, and the interface is there. But I have tried every walk-trough known to Google, and it still won't work. I have been using the GUI tools, but they don't work. I have also been using the command line walk through, and they aren't working either. Does anyone know which files I need to set and what the process would be?

I have a Sprint U760 air card that apparently works under Linux. Sprint has a guide: "Wireless Mobile Broadband Setup Guide for Linux OS" that I am using to setup the air card. When I go through the procedure in the manual for "Setting Up PPP Using KPPP" the last task is to query the modem to see if Linux recognizes it. When I do the query I get a response "unable to open modem". I have tried going back through the PPP setup but still get the same response.

I recently purchased the Linksys WMP45G wireless card for my desktop (as my router is too far for ethernet cable). I can't get it to work. The NetworkManager icon doesn't appear in the upper-right corner, despite being up-and-running. Here is some output:

On Slackware64 13.1 the as-installed en_GB locale gave Sunday as the first day of the week. This was not an issue until Xfce's Orage calendar was used when its display of Sunday as the first day of the week was offputting for someone used to Monday. A minor inconvenience but expected to be easy to fix.
At the command line:
Code:
c@CW8:~$ export LANG=en_GB <== same for en_GB.utf8

There is this one server running CentOS5.4 Final which has certain application like Bugzilla. I have setup ssh on it and setup is for password less authentication. Have also setup PasswordAuthentication to no. So with password authentication should succeed. But it is. Though password less authentication is working fine, but I am also able to login using password.
Code:
RSAAuthentication yes
PubkeyAuthentication yes
PermitEmptyPasswords no
PasswordAuthentication no

So those of you that know me will agree that when it comes to awk I don't usually ask a lot of questions ... however this one has me stumped. I am guessing I have missed something obvious but for the life of me (and I have tested at great length) I cannot find it So the scenario is this: The following awk code should identify all versions of libgpg-error within the attached file (see below) and only show one for each version:

CentOS 5.2. Openldap server-2.3.27-8.el5_2.4 I'm trying to get the server to do two things. One is allow authentication--that is, if a client is configured to use openldap for authentication, it should be able to access this server.
In other words, on machine_2, a client, doing getent passwd (as a quick test) will show the users in the openldap database. The more or less out of the box configuration works for this. However, as soon as I start trying to add ACLs, it stops working. For example, I want to restrict access to an address book which is also in the database. So I have
access to base.dn(changing base to subtree makes no difference) "ou=addressbook,dc=example, dc=com"
by users read by anonymous auth Now, even though this is just the address book, after that, an ldap client can no longer get the names of users in ou=People, and using the ldap server for authentication doesn't work.
I don't understand what I'm missing. ACLs are supposed to work first match wins. *IF* I add under that, access to * by * read, it will work, but the address book can then be accessed without a bind dn.
I am not sure what I'm overlooking. If I put in any sort of access control, the only way that clients can continue to use the server for authentication is adding that access to * (or to dc=example,dc=com"), by * read. I tried using access to ou=Group and ou=Peoplle by * read, thinking that would allow the clients to authenticate, but that doesn't work either, The idea is to allow any machine configured as a client to use it for authentication, but also to restrict viewing the address book only to those with a proper bind dn name.

I have a dwa-125 dlink wireless card which will not work. This is my first time using OpenSuse 11.2 (Well OpenSuse period). I had the same problem with Ubuntu 9.10 as well. If it will help the solution I used with Ubuntu is here: [ubuntu] Dlink DWA-125 Wireless Card Issue - Page 4 - Ubuntu Forums. I'd rather use OpenSuse than Ubuntu.

so i just downloaded Ubuntu Server 10.04 and i'm very happy with it on my virtual machine... but when i try to install it on my actual server it fails.
When i went to install it, it told me that there was no network hardware detected or something like that. So i just thought i could install a driver for it later.
So other than that all went well. and im very happy but now i dont know how to install my network driver. The card is a LYNKSYS LNE100TX. i downloaded the driver software and burnt it to disk because i was out of floppys. (I like floppys better) and when i went to install the software it allmost worked but it said:
Code:
make: gcc command not found
I'm assuming that means i need to install gcc but didn't really know how to go about it having no internet.

I have tried to find solution in existing posts but could not specifically find any with my kind of issues and hence a new post on oft repeated subject !! -- and apologies for a long long post here.Here is where I am ..On a AMD 64bit machine - I have ubuntu 10.10 desktop installed. I want this development machine to support virtual mailboxes so that I can use them from multiple apps and create real life deployment situations.I installed postfix + dovecot following the tutorials available here and current state is - I can send mails using telnet sessions and I see that the mail files are getting created in /Maildir form as I have directed in the conf files. I have configured Thunderbird mail client as well.
Issue #1: Mail sending works from Thunderbird but it always responds back with 'No mail on server' message when I try to receive mails. SMTP is configured with STARTTLS and POP3 with None (i.e. plain text password)Issue #2: Also, while going thru conf, logs and during testing - I found a few things which defer in this installation for authentication. I have given the session transcripts here.Issue #3: That being major issue - I also want to configure my virtual users to use TB client to access their mails - I did not find any tutorials or pointers towards that in my search for past few days. If I send mails to a non-Unix virtual user - the mail gets stored into /home/vmail/<domain>/<user>/new directory.Here are the conf files.main.cf for postfix
Code:
# See /usr/share/postfix/main.cf.dist for a commented, more complete version
# Debian specific: Specifying a file name will cause the first

Y want to rename a bunch of files and directories to remove the space on the names, easy enough right?
Code:
for source in $(find ./); do target=$(echo "$source"|sed -e 's/ /_/g'); mv -f "$source" $target; done
Well, I thought that should have work but the problem is that $source comes up broken, when I run it with echo instead of mv I get the echo with broken names.
Code:
In this case "$source"="This is the file I want to rename"
$ echo "$source"

Not sure if this is the correct area to ask this question as it pertains to Upstart but not necessarily to Ubuntu.
Anyhoo, I have made a small alteration (obviously the cause of error ) but not really sure why it does not work.
rsyslog.conf:
Code:
# rsyslog - system logging daemon
#
# rsyslog is an enhanced multi-threaded replacement for the traditional
# syslog daemon, logging messages from applications

Well this my first time working with linux and openSUSE, and I love it. But one problem I can't overcome is my network card is not working. I went to bestbuy and bought the dynex enchanced wireless G card.
Model # dx-ebnbc
ver. 1011
I installed wine to run the .exe but that did nothing and gave me that the dll is not registered. openSUSE detects that the card is plugged in but the card does not light up or activate in anyway. The only way I can connect to the net is through an Ethernet cable.

my wireless home network is not recognized by my network card (RealTek RTL8190 mini PCI). The post was as follows: "I am using a new computer with Windows 7 , Athlon quad core 2.60 64 bit, 8GB RAM. Internet conection works fine with ethernet but ubuntu does not see my wireless network. card (RealTek RTL 8190 ID: 10ec:8190). Have searched this forum but unable to come up with a fix. I was looking for windows XP drivers to use Ndiswrapper but could not find a list of .inf files. My network is OK and works perfectly in windows and with my 2 laptops. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Additional info: install was done within Windows using WUBI to a separate partition on my HDD. I am new to this and thouroughly confused as to the procedure for installing the drivers if they are in fact available."
I am very frustrated in that I would like to use Ubuntu 10.04 but it is useless without internet connectability. I am new to linux and do not understand where to get the appropriate drivers or how to install them. I wish someone would answer this post and either give me a clue what to do or just say "give up" and uninstall ubunutu.
