Networking :: Can't Change From Dhcp To Static Ip Address
Jan 16, 2010Can't change from dhcp to static ip address.I've installed Oracle's version of Linux Redhat 5, but I'm having no success changing from dhcp to a static IP address. My machine is plugged directly into a Belkin router which has the IP address: 192.168.2.1.If I use the gui: /usr/bin/system-config-network and set the network device to dhcp,it works fine. But if I set the IP address manually, I get no internet traffic, and if I ping an internet website, "network unreachable".The installation instructions for Oracle say that they want a full domainname. I've tried gateway.2wire.net. This worked in the last place I did a successful installation.It was the address of my ATT router. If I plunked that into a browser, I got the router configuration.

Dec 16, 2010Version 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.

Networking :: DHCP Server - Losing Static IP Address
Nov 10, 2010I have an Ubuntu Server 10.04.1 that I have given a static IP address. Every six hours or so I will lose connectivity to it and when I type ifconfig to look at the network information, it has been given an address via dhcp. If I run the /etc/init.d/networking restart command the IP address goes back to my static address and things are fine for another 6 hours or so. Here is what is in my interfaces file:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 10.60.82.15
netmask 255.255.0.0
broadcast 10.60.255.255
gateway 10.60.254.254
This machine is also a DHCP server and I checked to make sure there are no other DHCP servers on my network. Right now my fix is to have a Cron job running that runs the reset command every 5 hours, but I would like to find a more permanent solution.

Apr 11, 2010I 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.

Debian Installation :: Xen Domu Creation With Nfs Static Address Boots On Dhcp
Dec 11, 2014I am create Xen virtual machines.
I created a domu.cfg file with:
xen-create-nfs --ip 192.168.13.2 --broadcast 192.168.13.255 --gateway 192.168.13.1 --netmask 255.255.255.0 --nameserver 192.168.13.1 --initrd /boot/initrd.img-3.18.0 --kernel /boot/vmlinuz-3.18.0 --memory 4096M --mac 00:16:3e:01:01:01 --nfs_server myserver --nfs_root /var/exports/myhost --hostname myhost
I initialized it with:
xt-install-image --cache yes --dist wheezy --apt_proxy http://192.168.13.1:3142/ --mirror http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/ --location /var/exports/myhost
Then I started the domu with:
xl create /etc/xen/domu.cfg -c
And I receive this message telling me dhcp is used as I specified static ip:
IP-Config: eth0 hardware address 00:16:3e:01:01:01 mtu 1500 DHCP RARP
What can I do to desactivate the dhcp client?
remark: I used this equivalent former configuration with qemu-kvm and I booted with static ip without any problem.
General :: Fedora 7 Machine Browses Internet On DHCP / But Fails Completely On Static Address
Aug 3, 2010I am struggling with what might be a minor problem. I have a home computer which I would like to setup as a webserver and hence give it a static IP address. It is connected to by wire to a router that is connected to the WAN via PPPOE. If I enable the network card on DHCP it works fine in browsing the web. If I now set it to static IP address it does not brown. Essentially I use the command setup to run the static IP setup. I then set my IP address to 192.168.254.X , the subnet mask 255.255.255.0 and the default gateway to 192.168.254.1 (this is the router connected to the WAN). I am able to ping the router, however when I try and browse on static it does not work. Your help will be most appreciated as this has taken way too long to solve and I have Googled as much without success.

Mar 25, 2010I am puzzled with trying to configure a linux (openSUSE) client to dhcp to eBox DHCP server. I am using dhclient to lease an IP address with dhclient eth0 -s 10.45.48.108 and get a response
openSUSE11232CL1 dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 10.45.48.108 port 67 interval 4

openSUSE11232CL1 dhclient: send_packet: please consult README file regarding broadcast address.
The server reports eBox141 dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from 00:0c:29:3e:57:a3 (openSUSE11232CL1.domain.net) via eth0

I interpret this as the server receives the request and the client accepting it but the lease does not last long and the connection breaks. what this could be and why the connection breaks? Or my undestanding is totally wrong on how it works and should work? And BTW, where is that README file that's referenced in the message I receive on the client?

Ubuntu Networking :: 10.04 Set To Static But Resets To DHCP?
May 21, 2010basically I set the static ip address:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto seth0
iface seth0 inet static
[code]....
Restart networking:
"sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart"
Everything is fine but 24 hours later the server resets to the DHCP address assigned to it. I have not installed any GUI im just running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS in Hyper V. After it resets to DHCP I log into it using the dhcp address and reset the networking service "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart". It goes back to the static IP specified in interfaces. I have rebooted several times but every 24 hours it resets.
BTW - Before someone asks about iface seth0 instead of it being iface eth0. It is a Hyper V module running.[URL]
Also FYI-
# ps -ef | grep dhclient
root 1234 1 0 May19 ? 00:00:00 dhclient3 -e IF_METRIC=100 -pf /var/run/dhclient.seth0.pid -lf /var/lib/dhcp3

Ubuntu Networking :: Can't Use Static Ip On Dhcp Server
Aug 17, 2010I have 2 Ethernet connections, one (eth0) for the internet which gets set with dhcp, and one (eth1) for my internal network on which I have dhcp3-server running. I set eth1 to use static IP in interfaces, but every time I reset the network, it is fine for a couple of minutes, and switches over do being served by my own dhcp server on the same machine. (the interfaces file clearly says "iface eth1 inet static")

Ubuntu Networking :: Moving From Dhcp To Static Ip
Jul 19, 2011ps3 lan, psp wan, xp desktop lan, netbook W7 wan, fujitsu laptop ubuntu wan for surfing but often lan for large files, android 2.1 phone wan, mac sawtooth G3 (rarley) lan. near future, tablet wan, crappy ancient laptop xp lan rarely.next week i am having 6TB DS211j NAS (omg cant wait)I think, from what i have been reading, that moving to a static ip for each device will be better suited.I manage the belkin router from the ubuntu latop and wondered what the best way to proceed is, which first, what order etc etc.I can understand what needs to be done, i have the primary dns and ip numbers and mac address for every device ( the network is mac filtered)
so how would you begin...... a peice of paper and some drawings i have ready to plan it out.the reason i choose to change from dhcp to static is because of the arrival of the DS112j. from my understanding this device would benefit from never having its ip changed on the network. There have been times when the ip has changed on some of the devices in the past when the belkin has suffered a power failure or reset.

Oct 17, 2010I set up my interfaces file just fine on one of my computers and everything works. On my desktop its a no go. This is what I've done. I set my interfaces file to look like this
Code:
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
[code]....
Then I uninstalled network manager (sudo apt-get remove network-manager-gnome). Now I can restart my computer, but I do NOT get a static IP of 112, instead I get the last working dhcp given address (.104). It connects and I get internet using .104.
BUT, if I run
Code:
sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
then it DOES work. It changes to my address .112 and the internet works. But when I get that I get an error SIOCDELRT: No such process found (or something similar to that). But after it sits, it still finished with [OK] and my internet works. Clearly something is amiss though. Because it doesn't go to the static IP imediately. I even tried setting up a rcS.d link to a file with that networking restart command, but still no go. It starts with the .101 IP.
Ubuntu Networking :: Server: Dhcp - No Static - Cannot Ping Router ?
Dec 9, 2010Fresh install of 10.04.1 server; installs seamlessly; finds network no problem.
However, establishing static connection is driving me batty. Will not take. I've reconfigured "interfaces" file several times. My fingers are numb ifdown-ing and ifup-ing and /etc/init.d/network restart-ing.
I have two files in /etc/network ... interfaces and interfaces~ (one static and the other dhcp). I can switch them in and out of play. The dhcp works and pings out like a champ. static is dead, just dead. Cannot ping router ... nothing.

Aug 22, 2010I want to run networking on my laptops in different environment (home, office, airport etc). I found that Netowrk Manager assigns information from DHCP although I requested fixed IP and configured the gateway and DNS. If I reconfigure the DHCP server so that there is no free IP address, the laptop refuses to connect. When I remove the interfaces from the network manager, I get the fixed IP address, /etc/resolv.conf is not overwritten from DHCP but WiFi connection cannot be established, there is no dialog for setting WPA-PSK. The static IP address seems to be taken into account only if the DHCP server is not found. I need the static address at home and in my office because I need the possibility to ssh to my laptop from another computer but I need IP from DHCP possibly authenticating against RADIUS (Eduroam) when travelling somewhere else. Is there an easy way how to achieve it and how to switch profiles easily? And I cannot switch DHCP off because some devices in my LAN cannot work without it.

View 2 Replies View RelatedFedora Networking :: Static DHCP Works On All Computers
Oct 18, 2009I'm pulling my hair out to figure out what's gone wrong. I have a small home network with a router and 4 computers, 3 linux boxes and 1 windoze machine.The windoze machine and 2 of the linux boxes (newer ones, one with FC11 and the other with Ubuntu Hardy) are using the router's "Set Static IP" option just fine. However an older FC5 machine I have always gets its IP assigned randomly. As this is the machine I ssh into from overseas via a Dynamic DNS, this is a huge frustration when the power goes off or I need to restart the machine. It's usually 192.168.0.2 but sometimes 192.168.0.3 and occasionally other numbers as well. It _should_ be 192.168.0.130. As near as I can tell, I'm doing everything the same between the machines. The router config is very simple and works for the other systems so I suspect I may have a legacy tweak that I did years ago that's causing the problem.
Anyone know what I can try? I'm afraid I'm not a networking guru (ahem, wouldn't be posting if I were!) so things like "check the this" will be more helpful if there's a clear example. "Check the this...emacs /etc/thisfile/config" and see if XYZ option is TRUE" is far more useful. Again, many thanks. If none of the systems were working right then it would be totally different...but 3 seem to work just fine and happily get their assigned static IPs. It's the one non-conformist that's the trouble...
