May 24, 2010
I'm trying to setup my interfaces along side GNS3 for study purposes, and came across a ..... vid saying to try this (my current config)
[Code]....
I'm praying for some crappy syntax error, also in Network Connections... its now blank, the original auto eth0 setup is missing

the default for /etc/network/interfaces? I believe I screwed it it up because I can detect my wireless, it just won't allow me to connect to it. The settings in the /etc/network/interfaces are all messed up. I'm running Ubuntu 9.10.

So far as my knowledge goes, /etc/network/interfaces is supposed to contain a list of all the available interfaces. But my /etc/network/interfaces looks like this,auto loiface lo inet loopbackBut I have a perfectly working eth0 connection. Why does not it appear here?

Using Fedora 10, can anyone tell me how to setup the network scripts to create two network interfaces for vlan x and y. Both interfaces should obtain an ip from dhcp and both interfaces should run over eth0.

Upgraded To Ubuntu 10.04 The Other Day. And when I first installed it everything worked great except for my sound card which I fixed. But there was no problem with connecting to my Router via an Ethernet cable. Then I updated the video card drivers, restarted my PC and it wouldn't connect. It would try over around 1-2 mins then tell me its disconnected. No green light activity on the router / network card either.
I've reinstalled fresh copies of Ubuntu a couple of times now, Hoping to get the default settings back. But nothing has worked since.
I looked around the net and found quite a few people had this problem on previous versions of Ubuntu but it would seem most of there fixes were for there Version, so it hasn't helped me.
Heres some info:
ifconfig:
I've tried all the various things from dhclient to ifup/ifdown etc etc.

I'm running Kubuntu 10.4. My problem is that Network Manager keeps defaulting back to Auto eth0. I have created a new wired connection and set my manual addresses. I have ticked the 'connect automatically' button. Every time I reboot or wake up it reverts back to Auto eth0.I did have wicd installed but this was not reconnecting after wake up (said it was connected but I couldn't ping etc), this is a pain also.

So I have two network Interfaces
eth0 - NAT behind a router
eth1 - Public IP
When ever I restart the machine, both interfaces pull a IP, but the it randomly chooses eth0 or eth1 to have the gateway. I want the gateway to be eth0 always.
[Code]...
Is there some file or setting I can modify in Fedora10 that will always choose 192.168.1.1 on eth0 as the default gateway?

For my router I need to change Ubuntu server from DHCP to static IP. So to do this I entered: Code: sudo vi /etc/network/interfaces ...and pushed the wrong buttons and exited the session suddenly by mistake. After learning how to use the vi editor I went back but I got a notice that the the last session didn't close properly and that a "swap" file had been created. Anyway, I entered my static IP info, saved the file, and attempted to restart with:
Code: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart Restart failed and I got a notice that I should delete the /etc/network/interfaces.swp file so I did. Tried to restart again and, didn't get the .swp file conflict message this time, but failed again - this time I got the following message:

i have limited experience with Ubuntu and Linux for that matter. i know my way around for the most part but i come from windows. anyway. i have 6 dell gx260 computers. i also have a netgear 8 port Ethernet switch. now im just trying to get the computers to see each other. simple for me in windows. but i have no idea where to start here. it just says connecting to eth0 then network disconnected. and thats it. for now im just working with 2 of the computers. the others are not set up yet. i have been googling for 3 days and got nothing that helps. (my goal after they see each other is to share files back and forth. and also to have one of them control the others with some type of remote desktop. but thats for another day.)

How do Linux identify the eth0, eth1, eth2 interfaces. For instance I plug in a network cable in to an interface. How do Linux recognize the plug in interface is eth0 or eth1?

I was just wondering if there's any point having both auto and allow-hotplug against the same interface in network/interfaces as allow-hotplug seems to bring an interface up at boot on its own.

If I try to add a new interface (eth1) to /etc/network/interfaces, I get
Code:
* Reconfiguring network interfaces... SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
eth1: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
SIOCSIFNETMASK: No such device
[Code]...
How do I add 2 interfaces and get anyone of them to work, as available ?

I want to set up a bridge using bridge-utils within /etc/network/interfaces like is shown here in this guide: [URL] The problem is that, at the same time, I want eth0 to have a specific static IP address. Right now I have a configuration for eth0. This guide tells me that I should not configure eth0 outside of the br0 configuration.

When I log onto my Ubuntu 9.04 boot I am disconnected from the internet, on my windows 7 boot It works just fine, I have attempted disabling networking, power cycling the modem and router, and re-enabling networking, no dice though. hovering over the connection icon tells me that there is no network connection.
Opening the edit connections window tells me that there a wired connection called Auto eth0 that is set to never, and that is all that I can find. I hunted for other forums on this and found a few but none with a successful resolution.

I have two network interfaces and their entries are shown as eth0 and eth1... I want to assign them static IPs which I do by
ifconfig eth0 192.168.9.245 netmask 255.255.0.0 up
ifconfig eth1 192.168.8.245 netmask 255.255.0.0 up
But I am not sure if it will ping both the interfaces if I issue a command
ping -I eth0 192.168.9.113 (machine in network)
ping -I eth1 192.168.9.113 (machine in network)
I am getting pings from eth0 but not from eth1

I want to set my desktop IP address to always be 192.168.1.2. The NetworkManager connects to the network automatically and the IP address is assigned randomly. I can set up another connection in NetworkManager and always change over. But is there any way to make the default eth0 interface to be permanently set to a certain address (using NetworkManager, not ifup)?

If I made a distro from scratch it would have been Lubuntu, cept I'm sure my theming would have been horrible. Now Ive installed on a couple of my Laptops, and even had a few friends convert, and for the most part everything is hunkus doris, cept one small issue thats keeping me from slapping it on my trusty laptop. I'm lost as to what the problem could be. Ive tried just about all I can think of, but I use sprint mobile broadband to connect to the net and then use Network Manager to share this connection with the laptops and Palmtops around the house. I can get my sprint modem to connect thats not a big problem the problem is now I cannot get the Auto Eth0 to connect to send out as a share. It just refuses to connect. Now this is not a Lubuntu problem at all Im sure its somehow a Lxde problem, as Mint Lxde, PeppermintOS, and so on do the same thing, refusing to connect Auto Eth0 while Sprint is connected. Any Gnome based distro this works flawless, as does Xfce distros, so Im sure this is somehow something within Lxde. Im sure its down to just "missing" a file or some stupid overlooked thing.

Last weekend I upgraded my Opensuse 11.1 machine (pretty clean) to 11.3. After the upgrade, the NVidia graphics no longer worked, but more importantly, eth0 was not bound to my Intel 82566DC gigabit ethernet controller. I fooled around in yast network devices long enough to know that everything there is configured correctly. The Yast message at the bottom of the Network Settings screen says:
"Unable to configure the network card because the kernel device (eth0, wlan0) is not present. This is mostly caused by missing firmware (for wlan devices). See dmesg output for details."dmesg output shows nothing related to networking. The boot screen shows:
Setting up (localfs) network interfaces:
lo ...
Waiting for mandatory devices: eth0 __NCS__
29 28 27 ... 1 0 ... failed
eth0 no interface found ... failed
[code].....
Any ideas here? I've googled till my fingers were tired and all I've found are references from folks with real hardware issues. This machine worked fine for me under 11.1. Now I can't get 11.3 to bind the nic.

so I now have 4 Ubuntu Lucid LTS installations - terrific - but the alternative Ubuntu boot on this particular PC (all made from the same Live CD) does not have any eth0 configured, so I cannot reach even my router. I can look at the eth0 properties with "Network tools" and it has no IP or MAC. I have the network notification gremlin installed but it does not appear on the top panel. {"eth0" hardware works under Win XP, hence this post}.
I'm a novice at Ubuntu, and I am at a loss. I realise that networking is supposed to be automatic, no 'tool' should be needed, but what can I do when it has not configured?

I clean installed xubuntu on an old laptop. I think I messed up the original configuration of xorg though because the highest resolution is 800x600.
# dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
or
$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

I'm using Easytether through my HTC Droid for interwebs running Ubuntu 10.04. However I also have a home network. However when I hardwire into the network via a D-Link router (Auto eth0) my internet no longer works. The same is true when I plug in my iPod. The Droid loses it's connection. What is the problem?

I just installed Fedora 13 on a new Dell XPS desktop and some of the networking files are not created/missing. The computer has Broadcom Gigabit wired card and Asus PCE-N13 wireless card. When I type lspci, I see that Network conroller: RaLink RT2860 and Ethernet controller: Broadcom BCM57780 Gigabit Ethernet. So, somehow they are being detected by the OS, but I am not sure if the drivers are installed or why some of the network files are missng.

I have already tried reloading the drivers, restarting the interface (which is missing) and every other solution I found on this forum (well... not exactly all of them but many of them) uname -a gives Linux hostname 2.6.35-27-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Tue Feb 22 20:25:46 UTC 2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux
