SUSE :: Need To Change IP Address - Where It Is Configured
Jan 3, 2011
I have an old Suse 8 installation on a vmware-host, where I had to change ip-addresses. Now something isn't working as it shouldn't:
- Proftpd isn't recognizing the old pw's (coming from a my-sql db)
I am not a real expert on linux, where is the address "192.168.1.37" configured on my machine? The Mysql daemon is running on this IP.
I can ping it: Code: web10:~ # ping 192.168.1.37
PING 192.168.1.37 (192.168.1.37) from 192.168.1.37 : 56(84) bytes of data.

I have configured loopback IP address on my server as (10.10.10.10). My LAN card physical IP address is 10.10.10.20. I dont want my loopback IP address to broadcast the IP & arp. How can i achieve it? Right now i see the problem that both 10.10.10.10 & 10.10.10.20 ip address is broadcasted by same MAC & I have 10.10.10.10 is already with some other host too.

Version 10.04 LTS. Installed desktop version and network worked but I needed a static IP address and the install configures for a DHCP configured address. I tried changing to static address using the System->Preferences->Network Connections application but was unable to get the system to come up with the network up.
So I manually modified the /etc/network/interfaces and the /etc/resolv.conf files. I restart the system but when I do an ifconfig, I don't see a configured IP address on eth0 (only the loopback address). If I run /sbin/ifup eth0 everything then works fine and ifconfig shows the correct address bound to eth0.
My files are as follows:

I am trying to perform VM cloning using KVM in a centos 5.6 machines. I copy the memory contents of a running vm to an external state file and try to use that to start another VM in a different machine. While starting the cloned VM I provide a different mac address but once it resumes it has the old one . I tried changing the mac address in ifcfg-eth0 but I get the error: Device eth0 has a mac address xx:xx instead of configured xx:xx.Ignoring .
Is there some way to change the ip/mac of the cloned vm without the need to restart the VM ( Then the purpose of cloning will be defeated). Thanks a lot for the info.

I added an init script numbered just before bind9 starts, which needs to see the ipv6 link-local address on eth0. Sometimes this address is not configured, yet. In all cases it eventually is configured.
I am unable to find any script that is configuring the ipv6 link-local address (which is in part based on the MAC address). Does anyone know if there is some script or program that is supposed to be doing this, or is it an internal kernel function?
One workaround I am considering is making this init script go into a loop around sleep 1 to keep checking for the ipv6 address. But I'm concerned this might cause some problems. Any suggestions? I don't want to let it move on to start bind9 until the configuration this script does (more ipv6 addresses) is done.
This is on Ubuntu 9.10 server (for which there is not a prefix choice).

We�re experimenting with deploying SUSE 10 SP3 systems and adding them to a Windows domain and DNS. Oddly, when we register in DNS, it gets registered under two address: the real IP address, and the address 127.0.0.2. Also, an ip addr command shows that the loopback device lo has two addresses: 127.0.0.1 and 127.0.0.2.
The above behavior is just on SP3. On SUSE 10 SP2, the lo device has only the 127.0.0.1 address, and the system is able to register correctly in DNS.
Do you know what the 127.0.0.2 address signifies, or how to get rid of it?

I'm using crunchbang (jaunty) on an old desktop at home that I intend to use as an ssh server. I have everything set up and ready to go, I can ssh just fine if I'm on the same network (on my laptop) as the server, but when I tried remote access, I realized that I had the general IP (192.168.1.100) and that I needed to change the IP address to ssh remotely.I have tried to manually change the /etc/network/interfaces file but have only gotten confused.The question is what do I change and where in order to get a unique IP address for my ssh server to ensure a successful remote connection?

I use GNU MAC Changer. It changes my local network connection mac adress properly. But it does not changes my wireles mac adres. I try it with sudo ofcourse the error which i get is : "ERROR: Can't change MAC: interface up or not permission: Too many open files in system". I disable the wireles connection and then try to change the mac but i get the same error. I try these commands :
# ifconfig eth0 down
# ifconfig eth0 hw ether 00:80:48:BA:d1:30
# ifconfig eth0 up
[code]....

Some people may need to change the mac address of their ethernet network cards. This can be easily done with fedora with command line. Just follow the steps below:
1. Log as root on a textual console (ctrl+F2) or through "su -" command in your console
2. Print your network configuration with ifconfig
[root@localhost ~]# ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:23:8B:6A:7E:9E
inet addr:10.1.128.244 Bcast:10.1.255.255 Mask:255.255.0.0
inet6 addr: fe80::218:8bff:fedb:7e9e/64 Scope:Link
[code].....
Here, eth0 is the ethernet interface of your system. The mac address is put in red.
3. Change your mac address using the following syntax
ifconfig eth0 hw ether 00:18:8BA:7E:90
The new value (in green) must be hexadecimal
4. if you have a dhcp server that distributes the adresses automatically, then request a new adress for your eth0 interface
[root@localhost ~]# dhclient eth0
5. Now, your interface is up and have a new mac and IP addresses. This feature may be useful if the network administrator ban you according to the mac adress, for example .........

I have a dual-boot laptop where both are configured as clients for bacula (backup software). Since it is a laptop and it gets used outside the network where the backup is done, I can't just assign a static IP and be done; it really needs to accept an address via DHCP.
Changing the MAC address is easy:
Code:
But if you do this manually, then you'll need to restart your connection. I don't want to do that, I want the laptop to just come up with the correct address in the first place because one day I will forget to change it and the backup system will be very confused (and I will be very sad when I find myself needing that backup).
The solution is to run an init script prior to starting the network. Below is the script I am using, with someone marginal comments. It is based on the network script in /etc/rc.d/init.d, heavily edited. You will need to add one parameter to your ifcfg-ethX configuration file to set the desired MAC address. That parameter MACADDR does not seem to be used by any of the init scripts. You will find it in some of the scripts in network-scripts, but it is not used as an input parameter, but rather set by querying the NIC, thus this use does not conflict.
Here's the script:
Code:

I've just reinstalled F14 with KDE rather than Gnome and I'm finding that I'm unable to assign a static IP address to my wired connection.
KDE automatically connects via DHCP, but when I go into KDE's network manager, the eth0 connection isn't listed. In fact, no wired connection is listed. If I manually add one with the correct settings (including a static IP), it switches back to DHCP upon rebooting.
How can I get around this? Should I install the networkmanager-gnome package?

I have setup a machine with Ubuntu 10.04 server and i have installed a KNC card for Streaming the channels. Everything is good so far and here is the real deal .. i wanna change the MAC address of the KNC card to try different things. I know how to change the MAC address of the LAN card but not sure about the KNC card. I tried few things by installing macchanger.. but didn't work out. Can any one tell me whether its possible to change the MAC of the KNC card and other tricks.Here is a little info:-
[ 11.344208] saa7146: register extension 'budget_av'.
[ 11.344704] budget_av 0000:04:01.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 22 (level, low) -> IRQ 22

As I try to change my if0 MAC address either from /etc/networking/interface, or from GUI application, when I try to reconnect (through GUI) the application automatically creates some sort of alias interface with the default MAC every time, and leaves the one with the changed MAC aside.

I purchased a Dell Notebook n4030, that came with the wireless adapter from Broadcom BCM4313. It's been a while since I've been battling with the Broadcom driver to make it work perfectly. I did it!
But some servers I work with wireless in my town and I need to always be changing the MAC Address of my wireless adapter. Whenever I make the change, which is in the Linux distribution is already using it, when I enter the command:
Come to me the message:
Then I give an UP interface, but after that the adapter does not get the IP address of the network.

How can I change the MAX address string using sed. What I need is to add or subtract number from MAC address, e.g.
Input string:
ethaddr=00:21:04:4D:BB:00
Output string
ethaddr=00:21:04:4D:BB:05
I'm not experienced with sed.

I cloned a drive image on a computer using clonezilla. I want to clone the hard drive to another computer with same CPU/Motherboard/graphics card.
On the first computer, OpenSUSE is on sda. However, I found that the hard drive I want to clone to on the second computer is sdc. Now, the second computer won't boot because it want to load from sda. How can I change the drive from sdc to sda?

Despite what the man page says, and what I have read out on the web, I cannot get the mail command to let me change the "from address"
I have tried to change the reply address (-R my@address.com)
I have tried to change the from address (-f my@address.com)
..... and so on
Anyone have any luck, from the command line (as I am setting up cron jobs) in changing the "from" address?
echo test | mail -s "This is a test" user@domain.com (this is the basic command I wish to use, but change the "from address")

I have to change my MAC address in order to get an IP lease via DHCP. But almost no installer CDs have ifconfig and dhclient.
ifconfig eth0 down
ifconfig eth0 hw ether 00:22:15:C0:27:23
ifconfig eth0 up
dhclient eth0
Is there any way to change a MAC address within Debian or Ubuntu installer CDs?

I have followed some instructions to change to a static ip address and have now lost my connection to my router. The mistake I made was not copying the original "interfaces" file before making changes.The file originally had: auto wlan0 iface wlan0 inet (something - I thought it was loopback but didn't work when I added it).
The instruction told me to put:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.100
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.1.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255
gateway 192.168.1.1
Which I did, using my own ip numbers, except for "broadcast". I didn't add that in because I didn't have a clue what to put there. When it didn't work, I tried putting it back to what I originally had except I can't rememebr that last bit. I added dhcp instead of what I thought it was but this didn't work either.

Now I'm not too clued up about networking and IP addresses. However, I know that I have an IP address for my router (which is dynamic) and then all of my machines have internal address e.g.
192.168.0.2
192.168.0.3
etc...
My server, had the internal address of 192.168.0.4 but now has changed to 192.168.0.7 what causes this to happen? I have to change my port forwarding on my router to allow access to my server from outside my network.
