During my startup I saw this line; Code: err, eth0: netlink: No such process My internet connection went down when I log on to my system.Any idea on this problem.I use realtek RTL8211CL network card,the built-in network card in my inspiron 1440.
I have been running an IBM etherjet 100/10 card for several years in a system with the motherboard's VIA Rhine LAN disabled. But, now the etherjet went bad, eeprom corrupted error in system log, so I removeed it and enabled the VIA Rhine on the motherboard.
However, when I boot slackware 13 , smp huge kernel (I have not got around to building custom for this system), I no longer have eth0, only lo.
However, system log has:
So, why does it no appear with ifconfig? I also have a ubuntu 9.10 install on a separate partition and it detects and uses the VIA LAN in place of the old etherjet.
I switch between two ip configurations, a dhcp one and another with static ip. The problem is that, when I changed the 'eth0' part of /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf file to use dhcp, and restart rc.inet1, I get the original ip address unchanged in eth0 interface, and the newly gotten ip address goes to 'pan1'.I can surf the internet as usual, I have noticed this problem because I can not ping to the default gateway or use the network printer.
Code: bash-4.1# /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1 restart Polling for DHCP server on interface eth0:
I am trying to retrieve an interface's MAC address using netlink address. I got to a point, where I am able to parse the reply for 'RTM_GETLINK' till 'case IFLA_ADDRESS'. After that, I have no idea to print the MAC address.
During installation I set eth0 to use dhcp to get an IP address. I then installed gnome and networkmanger which handles my interfaces and works fine. But during bootup the system pauses for 5 seconds or so while it polls for dhcp. It then times out and gives me a 169.254.xx which is then replaced when networkmanager starts up at the end of bootup.
How do I stop the polling to cut out the 5 seconds?
I'm running Slackware-13.1 on my laptop. Connection to my network is via wlan0, a cable in most cases not pluged in.When starting the system the first attempt to configure the network is via eth0, which ends with dhcpcd timing out since there is no cable pluged in. Afterwards wlan0 is set up properly.
I have installed ifplugd, which is a daemon who connects to ethernet only if a cable is connected. With Gentoo this works out of the box. With Slackware ifplugd is started after rc.inet1 (probably). So the the system still tries to connect via ethernet before connecting to the wireless network.
I have also installed wicd.How can I manage that wlan0 is prefered over eth0?I noticed that neither wicd nor ifplugd belong to the default full installation of Slackware and therefore assume, there must be a solution which meets my requirements without even one of both programs.The laptop is only used at home. Wireless connection is normaly used. I need eth0 only in a case of emergency.
I am trying to access a generic netlink family to send messages from user-space to the kernel. I am using libnl example here [URL].. The problem is that I keep getting
Code: error: netlink/genl/genl.h: No such file or directory error: netlink/genl/ctrl.h: No such file or directory You would think I have not installed libnl and libnl-devel but I have.
In Slackware current there's a problem where iptraf does not show eth0. Here's a link to the bug report and patch.

I've had this show on 2 different current PCs. Kernels 2.6.35.10 and 2.6.35.7. This is with an Atheros AR8121/AR8113/AR8114, and Realtek RTL8111/8168B.
I am looking for a way to delete the systems default gateway from the routing table via the NETLINK API.Unfortunately, the documentation I found about NETLINK is incomplete.There are some basics (communicating with the kernel, reading the routing table) but not much more.Does anyone know the packet format for deleting a routing table entry, especially deleting the default gateway? I can set or change the default gateway with the following parameters (there are more, but I left out all the non-essential ones):
I looked at the /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf file it says something completely diff than the iwconfig. iwconfig is saying there is no wireless extensions on lo and eth1 but on eth0 all my info is there now on the conf file it says and ip address on eth2 and nothing on eth 0, or 1. does anybody know why it keeps jumping back and forth? one week its eth0 and maybe 2 months from now its eth1.
My office has a box which is, by necessity, dual-boot WinXP/Slack. The Slackware I'm running there is -current, all great and fine. Until now... It turned out that my mobo, an ASUS P5KPL-CM, died after a power surge. Since the XP needs software activation, we replaced it for an exact copy of the mobo. After the change the box worked fine in XP, and I was able to connect to the network via the Ethernet interface. BTW, the Slackware version is Slackware-current, updated as of the Jan 9 update (after that I was no longer able to connect to the Net with Slack). However, in Slackware there was a problem: eth0 was no longer recognized. Using /sbin/ifconfig only listed the lo (loopback) interface. The lspci output is:
I'just installed ubuntu 10.04 LTS on my new laptop(ACER aspire 5750). Ubuntu installed perfectly. Every things working ok but, it can't able to detect my CABLE MODEM.
I would like to get my Slackware 11 to work with the Broadcom NetLink BCM5787 onboard Ethernet Cards (x2). I have downloaded the tg3 driver from the Broadcom site. I copied and extracted the driver onto the Linux harddisk. When I wanted to build it I got the message, tg3_compat.h: error : redefinition of 'msecs_to_jiffies'previous delay.h : error: definition 'msecs_to jiffies" was here"
I just installed gewsense on my dell studio xps. I have a dual boot with windows vista. Problem is I cant get the internet to work via lan or wireless. I have read it could be incompatibility with my hardware but wanted to know what can I do to troubleshoot and resolve.
5.10 Breezy configured as machine controller. Works great eth0 is a fixed IP to communicate with controller comms board. Not easy at all to alter - the comms board is hard coded to listen on eth0 for commands.
I can use eth1 as the default gateway and ping google.com, etc. But when I now attempt to communicate with the controller with netcat, e.g.
Code: echo !HH | nc 192.168.1.6 80
I obviously never get an answer since the request is passed via eth1. Using the -g option with netcat doesn't work either. I had a look at iptables but it doesn't seem to be able to do what I want. How I can still use eth0 as my communication port to the controller whilst eth1 is the default gateway?
I have two servers on a vlan at my datacentre/colocation and previously both servers had public IPs on their eth0 interfaces. The servers are HP ProLiant DL360s - one is a G4 and one is a G5 The newer G5 is now the LAMP server and the G4 has been retired and I want to repurpose it as an iSCSI target using openfiler freenas or similar.
My G5 has public/static IPs lashed to the eth0 physical interface and the eth1 is not configured to do anything yet. The G4 will have both interfaces available - perhaps one for ssh access from one of my static public IPs and the other to be a private IP on the local vlan. Here is what I am trying to get my head around...
The G5 eth0 - Public IP - full LAMP services on two or three virtual interfaces eth1 - Private IP 192.168.0.1 The G4 eth0 - Public IP for ssh eth1 - Private IP 192.168.0.2
Because my traffic between eth1 on these boxes is via private IPs on the local private vlan it doesn't add to my quota for bandwidth. How do I go about configuring the routing and gateways and other aspects of this so that I can run a private IP space network between the eth1s and still serve the outside world from the eth0s...
I am afraid that if I assign the private IPs to the eth1 interfaces the routing may either not work or interfere with the access to the production internet facing interfaces (eth0s).
If I uncheck and recheck "Enable Networking" in the Network Manager Applet 0.7.996 I would expect the wired network to disconnect (which it does) and reconnect (which it does NOT). So I tried sudo ifdown eth0 and got

Ignoring unknown interface eth0=eth0.
ifconfig tells me

so I am at a loss. How do I stop and restart the network interface short of rebooting the machine?
I got two IP's in my dedicated server. Both are external IP's. I would like to make connections using 2nd IP address under eth0:0 interface. For example: when using "lynx whatismyip.com" should display my 2nd IP. How to do this using iptables ?
My network name is eth2 it was changed by some reason and now i got these errors... i installed, reinstalled, re re installed, tried to run the asistant but no luck :/
Code:

On my machine (Desktop PC) I have 2 network card : wireless (rt61 802.11) and a wired card (BCM44). When I install debian 5.
The wired card is detected and logical name eth0 is assigned, while wireless is not assigned I install firmeware* software to configure the card. It is done in some way ( I used mnetwork from mepis, it works fine).
Now the problem: eth0 disapears, and no eth0 inteface found? ifconfig gives just wlan0.
Question: Why there is no eth0, it was before configuration of wlan0 ?
How to active again eth0, or ho to create the logical eth0?
I'm running a dual boot Ubuntu 10.04/Backtrack 4 (Ubuntu 8.10) system. I can get internet in the BT4 side but not in the Lucid side. In Lucid I can ping my router, and the network manager says I'm good to go, but I can't get to any web sites. It all started when I tried to put my laptop on another network by mimicking the settings of a computer I had just unplugged from the network. MAC address and all.
ifconfig eth0:
Code:

I upgraded to current, and x won't start... I suspect it's probably an issue with the Nvidia drivers (I forgot to swith my xorg to the nv drivers; I knew I'd be getting a new kernel). Anyway, it leaves me with an unusable computer. Is there anyway I can get into a console before x tries to start. BTW, the ctrl-alt-f1 hotkey isn't working.
I could connect to the samba server, say, there are 3 dirs, and when I clicked any one of those dir, errors come to me, the process for the smb:// protocol died unexpectedly...
I have 2 Slackware installs at home, both tracking -current. When 13.37 is officially released I'm considering changing one of those to remain as "stable" for general family consumption. My question is...when the next release comes, how painless and/or successful is the upgrade process. Yes I know of the detailed upgrade instructions by Pat V, and I know I'd have no difficulty executing them.
I'm not sure how long ago this happened but eth0 seems to have vanished from my computer. wlan0 works fine and when I plug into the switch there is carrier detect.

I was wondering if anyone can tell me what file, etc is the equivalent of ARCH's /etc/rc.sysinit? I need to know this because I am having many problems making the new nfluxos iso's for ARCH because of how ARCH now mounts stuff at bootup
due to whatever changed in udev or udisks or something else in ARCH now, when I make the system into a livecd it doublemounts everything when booting for example; output of "mount" in nfluxos with 3.4squashfs udev 151
Code: [root@nfluxos ~]# mount rootfs on / type rootfs (rw) aufs on / type aufs (rw,relatime,si=4ce08f22,nowarn_perm) none on /proc type proc (rw,relatime) none on /sys type sysfs (rw,relatime)
I am unable to complete the installation of Slack 13.0 on a new machine with Intel DH55HC motherboard and Intel Core i5 750 processor. The installation proceeds smoothly until the 3'rd CD and then hangs at the FONTCONFIG UPDATE stage. The hung process is apparently rescan-scsi-bus which reaches this stage
"Scanning host 6 channels 0 for SCSI target IDs .... "Scanning for device 6 0 0 0... "NEW:
It is not possible to kill this process even with "kill -9". I have to kill the parent process which is Slack setup, so the installation is incomplete. There is another recent thread on this issue [URL] but it did not resolve my problem. How to correct or bypass this difficulty (maybe another kernel? I use the default).
Slack is 32bit. Frequently, firefox becomes unresponsive. I can close the window, but the process is not terminated. I am not able to restart firefox without rebooting.
When this problems occurs the firefox processes are not terminated by the 'kill' command. Example
