Networking :: Router Dir 100 From D-link Detect Hostname Automatic?
Dec 22, 2009
I have a very simple setup
router DIR 100 4 ports
adsl connected to WAN
Linux connected to port 1
Mac connected to a port 2
I am trying to figure why linux hostname is not detected in my LAN. The strange thing is that my macs hostname is automatically detected and put in DHCP CLIENT LIST! I have scrolled the whole manual 10 times.
My Linux (Slackware 13) gets IP address automatically by DHCP server in router. Has anyone had this problem with routers in general?
Output from router DIR 100:

I can reach other hosts by means of their global addresses by either the IP address or hostname (that has the global address). What I want to (also) do is have a hostname that references the IPv6 link local IP address (an AAAA record in DNS, or just the fe80::<whatever> address in /etc/hosts) and use that host name in commands to access that host. The problem is, an interface ID is needed when making such a reference.
It sure looks like the programs just pass the host name string on to the resolver library, which does not understand the significance of the '%' even though it could find and see that the name preceding the '%' is consistent with that being an IPv6 link local address (e.g. the logic could have been "split at first % and see if preceeding name is found as a link local address and accept that if so, or ignore the split otherwise" ... but it isn't). Is there a different syntax for this ... or was it overlooked in the design of programming around IPv6?I want to be able to address a host by its link local address, while still using a mnemonic instead of having to type the IPv6 address.

On my network right now I have Ubuntu, Fedora, Debian, and Linux Mint computers. I got tired of getting my IP addresses scrambled every time I reset my router (which is the first thing the techs make you do if something isn't working). So yesterday I setup my computers with static IP addresses (from the computer side instead of the router side). Each of my computers has a unique name (happens to be mario-themed). If I use hostname, I get the proper name:
Code:
[-@supermario ~]$ hostname
supermario.mushroomkingdom
[- @supermario ~]$ hostname -s
supermario
But on the router, only the Linux Mint system appears with a name. All the rest of the systems appear as their IP address. What can I do to make them send their hostname over to the router? What is Linux Mint doing differently?

first time user of F14 here. Used PCLinuxOS so far. Installed F14 fine , got samba up, set the hostname of the box to fedora.linux BUT when I connect to my wireless router (Belkin) the hostname shown in the routers DHCP client list is different:
Router shows:
IP Address-----Host Name-----------------MAC Address
192.168.2.4----ralf-FK790AA-ABA-m9---00:22:5F:17:dE:98
In terminal it shows
[dagaz@fedora ~]$ hostname
fedora.linux
[dagaz@fedora ~]$
When I search the forum or google, I end up with hostsfile or samba howtos. Those settings all show the right name : fedora.linux Why does the router show ralf-FK7 etc..? and where can I change it?

My son lost his USB Wireless stick for his Computer. I had thought I heard that if you had a second wireless router, you could use it somehow to detect the wireless router you have already set up in your home (like using a wireless card)? Is this what Ad-Hoc is? Either way, can this be done and if so how? I use a WRT54Gx2 Lynksys router and have a TRENDNET TEW-432BRP wireless router and also a spare D-link DI-514. I use ubuntu 10.04, and also wanted to know if I connected one of the router to his on the LAn port could he connect msaybe through an Ad-Hoc on my local computer here? He uses XP on his. I'm a newbie to linux and networking in general.

Currently, I would like to setup an automatic backup system, where the data on my computer is copied to an external harddisk which is connected to the router (Siemens SE551). This device theoretically allows setting up a file server, but unfortunately I can't access the share from Linux. I have not yet tried to access this share from Windows.
The rough plan is to use rsync and ssh, issued by a cronjob on both, my Ubuntu- and on my WinXP-notebook. But before considering this, I have to get my system connected with this drive.
BTW: I am using Ubuntu 10.4.
According to the SE551 manual [URL], NAS is not provided.
I followed this manual and set security OFF. According to the router's web interface, the device was recognized correctly.
I installed samba:
Code:
gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf
#
# Sample configuration file for the Samba suite for Debian GNU/Linux.

# This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the

My computer takes a while to connect to my Linksys N router.
It used to connect in a snap of your finger automatically.
Now it does not.
Yes I have tried manual configuration, and double checking the password, ssid, protocols, and security type.
WPA2 personal is the security type.
There are maybe 4 different ways I know how to connect. The most annoying thing is when this box pops up saying to type in a password for the network connection.. and keeps popping up even when everything is right.
All I need is a reliable, easy, and automatic program to connect me to the internet, maybe even before I log into my system.
Linux Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Desktop Edition is my system. Brilliant system.

I have installed Ubuntu 9.04 onto a USB stick (8mb). Works OK, it detects my Wireless Broadband, connects and works OK. But it does not detect the Wireless from my PC router. Do I need to install something to do this?

the router is TP-Link TL-WR340G. When I got it I entered the menu and configured everything without problems. Some time ago I had to reinstall ubuntu and after that I couldn't access the router. I tried to reset it, i tried switching the wifi on and off. I connect the router and the pc with the network cable, i type 192.168.1.1 in firefox and it says: can't access site. I plug the internet cable in the modem - its the same and I dont have internet at all.

Details:
1. Using XP Pro SP3 (32-bit)
2. Laptop = Sony VAIO VGN-FZ140E
3. Recently purchased a TP-Link Router (TL-WR740N) which claims to give 150 Mbps speed
When connected, my Intel Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN shows a speed of only 65 Mbps . A friend came over with his laptop (having Windows 7) and was able to get 150 Mbps speed. I even compared and the same web sites were opening with considerable difference on our laptops. Do I need to upgrade the driver?

I need to connect to my router using only CLI, specifying an username and password, preferably with a single command line, so it won't be interactive, 'cause I need to include the command in a script.

I have laptops with intel 4965/AGN wireless hardware and ubuntu jaunty. My wireless access point, router, gateway is a D-Link DIR-655. The D-Link is directly connected to my cable modem. The connection does not drop, but They suddenly quit talking with each other. After a brief time lapse, they start talking again without intervention on my part. When I say "stop talking" this is behavior where a browser will return "page or server not found" errors or "DNS timeout". Has anyone seen this sort of network behavior and have some idea about corrective actions?
My attempts to get some help from D-Link have not been successful. Since there are not hundreds of folks reporting troubles, they don't [want to?] understand one poor souls problems.I've tried to ask about this several times and several places.

Ubuntu 9.10 comes with rt2870, the driver for my Zonet ZEW2545, and I have had to blacklist rt2800usb in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf in order for rt2870 to work. My network adapter is able to attempt to connect to my router, but after 10-40 seconds it tells me I am disconnected again. This adapter works fine on windows.

I use a wired Dlink Adsl Router GLB502T with its inbuilt dialer configured. Problem is it will not connect while computer is running.When I try to ping the local ip of the modem this is what I get "ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted" and "/etc/init.d/networking restart" has no effect either.I need to restart my computer every time i want to connect to the Internet.I switch on the modem when the grub bootloader appears and the modem connects without any problem.This problem appeared when i installed Ubuntu 9.04.There was no problem with Ubuntu 8.04.

I got two issues with my wifi usb adapter:
1) it cannot see any networks around
2) i cannot setup it in master mode to use my PC as a router
As far as i can see, the device is recognized and the correct driver (rt73usb) is loaded. I was able to connect to a laptop somehow (the laptop could see other networks and the adapter's PC-to-PC network). I'd like to make it work as a router, i.e. share my internet connection (eth0) via wlan0. Here is what i have:

In addition to 2 "desktop" machines, I recently set up an Ubuntu Server with Apache2, but when I try to access my www.homepage from a machine locally connected to the same router (via both wired & wireless interfaces), I am directed to the Login page of the router, not to the www.homepage. Yet, when I access the www.homepage from elsewhere, my www.homepage is accessible.
I can browse to my www.homepage by entering the local IP address into browsers on both local machines, so I know the machines are talking to each other. Just not letting me get in via normal internet browsing channels.
Server: Ubuntu 11.04
Webserver: Apache2
Router: D-Link DIR-615
IP Address of: 192.168.0.110 (reserved on router, static on server)

I am updating all of the company systems from Novell SuSE Desktop 10 SP2 to 11. We have several links on the desktops of users that are URL's. In version 10, I just did a Create Launcher, Type was Link and I could type in a URL. The LINK type no longer exist. I checked on my system at my desk which is OpenSuSE 11 and it also does not have the link type. I have been searching on the Internet for creating Launchers and then looking for information on creating links and have not been able to find anything. Can anyone point me to a good howto or document on creating URL link launchers (we have a system that runs Apache and from the users PC they click the link to connect to the server). I tried just creating a bookmark in Firefox and then dragging the bookmark to desktop and customizing icon. But, I build the systems at our corporate offices, and when I build, the IP address on the system is the actual IP and since it is not at the final location it can not connect, and the bookmark creation on desktop fails with error 'Unable to resolve hostname'

I have a network of 2 WinXP machines and one linux box. I have fiddled around with the settings as you do when learning. The network is working. The network neighbourhood on the WinXP machines recognise the linux box and vice versa, (the linux Places|Network recognises the 2 WinXP). I can Ping the linux box using its hostname from a WinXp. But I cannot do the reverse. I get an 'unknown host' response. I can ping the linux to itself using its hostname.

I'm having an issue on two Fedora Core 13 machines where I can ping others by hostname, but the hostname resolution fails whenever I use ssh/scp/vnc/etc. I can still do these things by IP address, just not by hostname. RHEL5.3 machines on the same network with the same configuration do not seem to have this problem.
Here's the not-so-quick-and-dirty description of the situation:
I know that there is a virtual router at 192.168.31.1 and another at 192.168.30.1. I also know that there is another network (let's call it 90.90.90.0) and on that network lies a number of resources. By nature of this configuration, any machine on 90.90.90.0 can be accessed by any 192.168.x.x, but not the other way around. Beyond that is out of my hands and currently out of my scope of knowledge.
I have a dnsmasq server on 90.90.90.10 that operates as a secondary nameserver, another machine out of my sphere of influence is the primary nameserver (90.90.90.31).
The secondary nameserver on 90.90.90.10 holds the hostnames of our development machines. The problem is that in some cases, while I can ping by hostname all day long, services such as ssh, scp, vncviewer, etc all fail to resolve the hostname. In other cases I can do all of these things.
Every machine has an equivalent resolv.conf:
As an example, I will show the output of a handful of my development machines:
I also included columbia as a one-way test -- even though it cannot access 30.x or 31.x, they can access it:
columbia -- physical machine, Red Hat Enterprise 5.3, IP 192.168.100.200
Okay, so here are the various outputs. Remember, nibbler, discovery, and atlantis can ALL:
- Ping by IP address
- Ping by hostname
- ssh, scp, vnc, etc by IP addess
Additionally, the SERVFAIL reply from 90.90.90.31 is expected since my dnsmasq server is on the secondary server.
Note that the only machine that can both ping and ssh/scp/etc by hostname is nibbler, which also happens to be the only one of the three running RHEL5.3 instead of FC13. Other virtual and physical machines running on the 192.168.31.0 and 192.168.30.0 networks (all running RHEL5.3) work just like nibbler does. So the problem seems to only affect machines running FC13.
Final note: selinux is disabled, iptables is disabled, ip6tables is disabled.
Other than that, discovery is a brand-spanking-new install straight off of the FC13 DVD. atlantis has been around longer, but its just a file server so I haven't done anything too crazy to it.

I'm trying to ping another Ubuntu computer on my local network. If I try doing,ping <hostname>then I get the messageping: unknown host <hostname>however, if I doping <hostname>.localthen I get a response back. I was wondering how I can change it so that I can ping without having to append .localI've installed winbind and modified my /etc/nsswitch.conf file but this has made no difference.

I have an ubuntu 10.04 server with hostname "abc.domain.com". However, due to migration, we had to change to hostname to something else, "xyz".
I have done changing /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname and run /etc/init.d/hostname start.
Checking the hostname and all shows it is now using hostsname of xyz. However, email sending out is still using old hostname. We have some scripts that will send out alerts like failed rsync or hdd space full to my email account. But I see the sender is still "root@abc.domain.com".
How do change that to xyz? I am using postfix. I have edited main.cf and restarted postfix but no go.

I have a problem where I'm using Ubuntu linux to mount a Windows Vista machine's USB drive and access it on the web using Apache. I did have the USB drive plugged into the Linux machine directly and that was working via the web. FollowSymLinks is on in httpd.conf
[Code]....
The mount works and I can see the files (see above) from my regular linux user account. If I make a test file in /mnt and soft link to that, I can see it on the web. So it's just the mount to the vista machine that seems to be a problem. It's supposed to be a simple read-only mount and the apache login should (I think) be able to see the same generic root access permissions.
log from apache: [Mon Apr 26 20:39:42 2010] [error] [client 99.99.99.99] Symbolic link not allowed or link target not accessible: /home/user1/pub_html/Music, referer: https://xx.xx.xx/~user1/music.html
The credentials have a login and password that matches a special read-only account on Vista. I can see the files on the system from Linux, but not via the web. As mentioned above, a different link to the same /mnt area works fine via the web. I've tried several different mount options with no success.

I setup the hostname for my linux machine to Linux. If I try ping Linux from the same computer it works. If I try from another computer inside my network the host can not be resolved. If I ping the IP from another computer it works.
I take a look in my router at DHCP client list and my linux machine doesn't have the Hostname set up.
How to broadcast the hostname to the entire network?
