OpenSUSE Network :: Setting Two IPs On One NIC?
Apr 21, 2010
I have a single NIC (eth0) and it has a single, static public address assigned to it. I would like to assign an additional private address (192.168.1.68) to the NIC to make accessing my router more convenient, but I'm having a little trouble. I'm not using the Network Settings module in YaST because whenever I've tried before it has usually resulted in my internet connection failing and being unable to remove the alias info I tried setting in YaST. So, instead, I'm just trying to do it by editing the configuration directly. I'm also using it as an opportunity to learn a little bit more about Linux. So far, all I've done is add an extra line to my /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth0 file. Originally the contents of the file were as follows.
Code:
BOOTPROTO='static'
BROADCAST=''
ETHTOOL_OPTIONS=''
IPADDR='XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX/21'
[code]....
Naturally, this didn't work either. Can anyone tell me how to specify the gateway for the additional local address?

When I attempt to connect to a wireless network, the network manager asks me for the network's password, then says 'setting network address' for 20 or so seconds, then asks me for some random Hex or ASCII key in the same type of window I put the password in (Secrets for Noel -- KDE Daemon). Since a key is already typed into the window, I press OK, which then causes the network manager to go back to 'setting network address', then the window pops up again and keeps repeating itself.
I'm running Opensuse 11.4 with KDE, and my driver is ath9k. I don't know much about linux so please don't tell me to 'recompile this' or 'change this setting' without explaining how to do it. Please help, I've been unable to connect to wireless in OpenSUSE for 2 weeks now.

I now want this opemsuse Netbook also to have the facility. Please advise me what packages I shall install and what modifications I have to do in /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-wlan0 or whatever else is necessary.

I've just installed OpenSUSE 11.2 w/KDE interface on a HP Pavilion dv5-1010us laptop.Now we're trying to get the wireless to work. It's got a built-in wireless adapter, but we're not sure what kind of adapter it is. HP's Website is no help there. According to another site, it's an Intel WifiLink 5100. I did download the wireless driver from the HP site, but it's a .exe file. Anyone had any luck setting up this or a similar HP laptop. I couldn't find this model on the HCL/Laptops/HP - openSUSE page, but it seems OpenSUSE supports wireless other HP Pavilion models.

My husband has opensuse 11.2 on his PC and is trying to get the Buffalo Linkstation to automatically boot up and access it.He can manually mount it but is frustrated to bits in trying to set it up automatically. He's thinking of nuking opensuse and going to Ubuntu as it worked before.

I am running
Code:
On my laptop (HPDV7), using DHCP for network access, KDE4.
I use Network Manager to manage wired and wireless connectivity.
I also have Samba server running for connectivity to Windows machines.
My router runs DD-WRT.
How do I tell this HPDV7 system to propagate a Host Name up to the router?
In the DD-WRT status screen, I see Host Name as "*" associated with the assigned IP address.
I cannot, for example, ping my HPDV7 machine from my windows machine, I assume because the router (also providing DNS for my network) does not provide the name to address translation.
I CAN ping the IP address directly, and Samba connectivity from the Windows machine to HPDV7 works.
The file

I am connected to work via a VPN. I am logging into a Solaris box at work from OpenSuse 11, using ssh -X. I would like to start a GUI on the solaris box. The problem is that I don't know what value to give the DISPLAY variable. Is it the local internal LAN ip address, for my machine? I did try that, and I tested it using, xterm on the solaris machine. It says it can't open the display. I have enabled remote connections on my machine using xhost +.I have to run a performance test on the Solaris box at 7am in the morning... so need to find out how to start the GUI

I can't seem to get Remote Administration (vnc) working for the life of me. I tried the ip4/ip6 fix and every other work around I could find. I simply can't figure things out. I can't say I'm new to Linux but I can say that I am quite new to openSuse and the RPM world in general. My actual error isn't much of an error but that of the vnc window just being a black window that eventually times out.
As of now I access and configure the box vis ssh.I'm using:
openSuse 11.3
Gnome Desktop
Installed from gnome live CD

how I can define a local static IP address (so that I can run a web server off of the same IP, rather than letting my router DHCP it)?I've tried doing the YaST->Network Devices->Network Settings->Traditional Method with ifup->Set NIC to desired IP->Set Default Gateway to router address method, and afterwards I can't even get into my router anymore (not even responding to ping).

I'm maintaining a very modest network at home, with OpenSUSE as OS on the server. I got the DHCP and routing working by following the instructions in the wiki. However, every time I run dhclient on the server/router, it appears my own DHCP server assigns an address to the internal network card despite the fact I specifically assigned it to be static using Yast. The situation resolves itself when I restart the network services with the command /etc/init.d/network restart. Otherwise no problem, but it also seems the internal network card gets a "new" IP from my server every time the external card requests one from the ISP. This is more of an issue.

having a very specific problem setting up the wireless card in my Dell Inspiron 1545. The card's description under lspci is this:

I have the required drivers from this website: Broadcom.com - 802.11 Linux STA driver As far as I can tell I have followed all the instructions given by the readme, I have all kernel packages that I had understood to be required but when I try to make the Makefile I am given this:
borgs0@linux-yjl1:~/hybrid_wl> make
KBUILD_NOPEDANTIC=1 make -C /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build M=`pwd`
make[1]: Entering directory `/lib/modules/2.6.34-12-desktop/build'

i'm trying to add windows print drivers to smb for them to be automatically downloaded to the client upon printer installation. I've followed the samba.org Printing documents which have been helpful to some degree. I have an HP printer and i'd like to just upload and register the .inf,.dll.cab files that the manufacture cd comes with for the client to use the .inf file to install the drivers from that location but i keep getting Werr_invalid_PARAM
here is the syntax of what i'm trying to do.
rpcclient -d 4 -U 'username%password' -c 'adddriver "Windows NT x86"
"HP_Color_LaserJet_3800:hpbicoin.dll:hpc3800c.inf:hpc3800c.cat:hpc3800c.cab:hpcp3800.cf_6i2arww.cab6i2caww.cab6i2csww.cab' Server

setting up my LAMP server to send email messages through my cable network SMTP server. If you respond please realize that I am new to linux/apache. I cannot send emails out with the built in email server on Suse and don't even know if it is enabled. I used to do it with my IIS/ColdFusion server but there were options for the outbound SMTP server and authentication. I have searched and think I have to use something called Pear but to be honest the instructions are vague to say the least and it all looks greek to me.

Does anyone know of a good tutorial for setting up single sign-on/login sync over a pure Linux network without any AD boxes in it? I have read this can be achieved through LDAP+Kerberos+PAM...I have these installed on a server...the users and groups on the server is configured to use them and a client has been pointed toward the LDAP server and has Kerberos enabled and users and Groups set to use the LDAP server as a backend.
I expected to see the users and groups list from the server show up on my client, or at least be able to login on the client as one such user. Am I misunderstanding what I read or am I just probably misconfiguring everything? My ultimate goal is for my clients to authenticate against my server and not have to sign in again when using server resources (Samba shares etc.).
I have read that NFS and NIS are old technologies that are going by the wayside and that Samba, LDAP authentication and such are overall better and more secure...What are everyone's thoughts on this? My network is just a home network so security isnt really a big problem...im just trying to set it up like a corporation with my limited resources would for the practice and education of doing it.

I would like to build a server to act as a file/print server for my home. My wife, sister in law, and myself would use it. I would like it to be friendly to both windows and linux. My sister and I are both dual boot and for now my wife is windows only. Pretty soon though I plan on setting her up on linux as well. What would I need? And are there any "good" guides to setting something like this up?
I would like to use the system to:
- Store media / files
- Maybe have KMyMoney on it and share with the wife
- Hook a printer to and use as common printer

I have setup up an Opensuse as a simple we/application server.It handles requests for various things and will need to send out email on occasion for things like password reset requests, information / warnings etc. etc.This is a standard OPenSuse 11.x install with defaults so it comes with Postfix as the mta.I do not want a mail server I just want to send out via my clients mail server which is hosted exchange rackspace, which simply requires SMTP auth to do so.What would be the proper way to do this so ALL e-mail send from this machine, regardless of account like WWWRun or when logged in and sending from the command line has the same sender all the time.

In 11.3, if in "/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth0" i set DHCLIENT_SET_DEFAULT_ROUTE="no" this seems to have no effect. If i start my box, the routing table has the "default route"-entry offered by a remote DHCP-Server. More Info: My Susebox has eth0 and eth1 and both network devices should use DHCP4. But from DHCP-offer on eth0 i want to use
* "offered IP-Adress for eth0"
* "offered NTP-Server"
* "offered Host-Name"
From DHCP-offer on the eth1 i want to use
* "offered IP-Adress for eth1"
* "offered DNS-Servers"
* "offered Default Route"

The only things i need out of it are: mars_nwe (Netware server under Linux) and a reverse telnet server (the dos machine is a bbs) I need the virtual server to support a very old dos machine, and while i COULD use samba for drive mapping, the VNC server I'm useing on the dos machine is a progrm called TINY which pretty much means i'm stuck useing the novell dos network stack.
how best to configure opensuse for this? I'm running the install off of the live-dvd which has quite a bit selected by default. I'm not in need of an x-server or a desktop manager, as this will be a set it up and forget about it once it works VM

I dont know were to begin to solve my problem and I have been googling for hours to get a hint without any success. I'm runnning a Counterstrike Server on my virtual openSuse server - I'm exploring so don't justify what I am hosting at the moment
I want to make it possible to gain access to the cstrike folde via a ftp login. But I really have no idea were to start. The server is also a webserver, where I can ass FTP accounts for my apache vhosts via plesk - but I dont think this is the solution of my problem, isn't it?

I'm trying to set my openSUSE desktop up to use the printers on my office network via Samba. I managed to get it working in 11.2 but 11.3 is giving me some trouble.I am able to access the printers and use them but I have to enter my network credentials each time I print. In 11.2 I was able to "save" my username/password and was not required to do this. Are there any Samba packages I need to add in addition to the basic ones? There seems to be a lack of documentation on this particular subject, most is concerning Windows clients printing on Linux print servers.

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 have searched around about this but have had no luck - I have two laptops both running Mint 8, and I would like to use Giver to send files from one to the other. When I bring up Giver on each laptop, it only sees itself, not the other computer. Both computers are connected to the same router for internet access. How do I go about setting the network up? I don't need any advanced network stuff - I simply would like to use Giver.
