Ubuntu Networking :: Kubunutu 8.10 Setup - Unable To Get Internet Configured?
Feb 10, 2010
I have kubuntu 8.10 up and running however I am not able to get internet configured. this is on a laptop i re-purposed. I have ubuntu on a desktop that works just fine. however w/ kubuntu no such luck. i realize its just kde vs gnome and am connected to the same router and such so all should work just fine, but alas it doesn't.the desktop is configured using dhcp, not static IPs.
the laptop w/ kubuntu isn't recognizing eth0
>cat /etc/network/interfaces displays:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
after restarting and running /etc/init.d/network restart.there is no resolv.conf... i understand dhcp should auto-create this? furthermore running ifconfig desplays no results ?

I've very recenty installed Ubuntu v 9.10(64amd) but am unable to setup my internet connection.I've gone through quite a few posts where other users have faced the same trouble trying to setup a DSL connection.I've entered all my Ip4 settings as they are on Win..but that hasn't helped.That didn't open my modem settings page either.Modem model : SmartAX MT882 connected via Ethernet and not USB.Can't quite figure out what I'm doing wrong/need to do.

At this moment I got a question asking what files should I configure to setup Apache and the client to access should insert something like http://10.0.0.10/mywebsite:8080. I have already installed APache2, and change the listen ports to 8080 at ports.conf (Listen 8080 | Name VirtualHost *:8080) and at /etc/apache2/default (VirtualHosts *:8080). I also found the index.html at /var/www folder. I also changed IP address at /etc/network/interfaces. With this changing, now I can access using http://10.0.0.10:8080. But the problem is, what about the "mywebsite" part?

I just finished downloading the latest version of xubuntu on my dell insperon 1545. I went to set up the internet and i cannot figure out how. In the top right corner the connection icon has only one option that i can select, and thats configure the vpn settings i think. I installed it using dual booting next to windows 7, so i keep switching back and forth trying to look something up and go back to see if it will work. However, i think i should make the point that i've never worked with any linux type o.s. before.

In windows XP one dialer is created using Rasppoe. In ubuntu I tried it using pppoeconf command but itis notable to setup the connection.

(1) What is the difference between OpenSuse and Suse Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) ? I see there is a link to download SLES in the Novell site. Will we have to buy SLES after 60 days for us to continue to use that OS ?
(2) I see this link Software.openSUSE.org
There is this link to download 4.7 GB DVD of Opensuse. Does that mean we need not have to download any packages from this repository, ndex of /distribution/11.2/repo/oss/suse/i586
For installing Oracle on Opensuse 9 I remember I had to install many of those packages on my laptop.
Do we still need to install those packages ?
(3) I have to install this SUSE (either Opensuse or SLES) on my laptop. My Laptop is Compaq Presario CQ60.
Can I connect to Internet if I install this software ?
Last time I faced lots of problems. I thought some laptops cannot be configured to Internet if installed with Linux.

Running Ubuntu 9.10 Ive just got my wireless connection working after first having got the wired eth0 connection working.
With the wired connection I could SSH into my server through my firewall/router (via a forward). I can run up VNC, from there firefox, browse the web - all is well.
I have now setup the wireless connection, using a static IP, and I can likewise SSH into my server. I can run up VNC. I can ping my router. I can log onto it via VNC. I can browse to my router. But I cant browse the internet.
But I cant ping google.com. The reason is there is no host lookup service. Nslookup eventually says no servers could be reached.
So specifically, if I ping www.google.com Im told "unknown host". If I do an NSlookup on it I get timeout, no servers could be reached. However if I ping 66.102.11.104 I get responses.
I see no relevant entries in my firewall log.
Unfortunately I cant traceroute because the package isnt found - and of course I cant install it because I have no internet !
Strangely (to me at least !) if I then tunnel through SSH and browse the web, I have no problems. It works ? I know I am browsing through my SSH tunnel because whatsmyip gives the IP of my router at home, not where Ive SSHd in from. I can surf just fine.
why I cant do host lookups any more (and this did work with my wired connection, but whether its related to my change to wireless, or static IPs or both I cant be sure - it certainly appeared to happen at the same time). And, more to the point, what I need to look for/do to rectify it ?
As a bonus Id be interested in why I can SSH and browse via tunnelling but not direct from my server (via VNC). Just for interests sake !
if config reports :
wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:90:4b:27:ae:17
inet addr:192.168.1.69 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

I have BIG troubles trying to set up wired internet connection in Ubuntu! To be able to connect to the internet I have to enter my MAC address, 2 IPs, netmask and 2 DNS address. When I try to edit the default internet connection eth0 with my correct information, the minute I enter my MAC address and save the changes the network manager creates new internet connection with wrong data and use it instead! I can't select the correct internet connection from the top bar where the internet icon is, because it is just not there. The only connection that I can choice is the new default one with the wrong data! If I try to create new separate internet connection with my correct data the same thing happens! The moment I enter my MAC address and save it, the internet connection disapears from the list of internet connections in the internet area in the top bar and I can't select it. I tried googling it, but with no luck I think that if I set up my connection trough the terminal everything will be ok

There is 2 networks that I would like to be part of
a) Through my wlan0 --> Internet DSL
and
b) Through my eth0 --> WUG - PTAWUG
I can only get one of the networks to work at 'n time. The wlan0 works fine when I start my PC, but when I want to access the WUG I need to do the following command:
Code:
sudo route add -net 172.16.0.0 netmask 255.240.0.0 gw 172.24.6.177 dev eth0
with the above command, I can then access the WUG but not the internet through my wlan anymore.all data goes to my wlan as standard unless its on the 172.16.0.0 network

I have installed opensuse 11.4 xen on a HP ML115 G5 AMD Opteron server, which previously hosted a fully working opensuse 11.3 xen. The problem seems to be that br0 is not showing as a bridge device in network settings. When I first installed opensuse 11.4 networking was available via dhcp, I then installed the xen tools and answered the prompt to create a bridge, it was only when I re-booted the system that I lost my network connection.
Going back into network settings I compared the settings to an existing working opensuse 11.3 xen install that I have and noticed that br0 is not showing as a bridge device in network settings so cannot be selected, in fact no bridged devices are shown.

Trying to move from Windows to OpenSUSE. I have installed OpenSUSE 11.2, and am having a hard time trying to connect to the internet using my nokia E65. I have tried to configure the modem thru YaST and it keeps showing that my nokia E65 modem is not configured, but adds another modem every time I configure using the edit button i.e. modem0, modem1 etc.
When i finish the configuration I get pop ups on the bottom right conner:
Notification from network management
WLAN interface attached
Network interface attached
But nothing happens afterwards. When I connect the phone it shows that it is recognized as a modem (probably). but when I click on the icon so it connects to my service provider "econet" it just says activating with a red x in the conner, and still nothing happens!
The following are the screenshots (still not sure how to attach files on this forum), may someone assist, with that too.
I really want to move from Windows but this is what's stopping me. the sooner I connect to the Internet through my phone, the sooner I leave Windows, since it's the only way I can connect to the internet.
I have tried wvdial, and I got the following:

I have Dlink Wireless G Access Point.
I can connect to my access point to surf internet. I setup my Dlink access point (password, network name, etc) in Vista by visiting "http://dlinkap/" in my web browser.
In ubuntu, I can connect and surf the web/internet but i cannot access the setup page.
When I try to type the "http://dlinkap/" to my browser then the browser will redirect it to google search.
I try 192.168.1.1, I can access my linksys router. but my dlink access point, i cannot access the setup page.

I have 1 root-server with 2 NICs, both having their own internet IP addresses:
Code: eth0 = 8x.x.x.183
eth2 = 8x.x.x.205 We only have one gateway on that network:
Code: gateway = 8x.x.x.1 We want to use eth2 for postfix + http, and eth0 for all the other stuff.
How can this be setup ? With route / ip route / iptables ?

I am running CentOS release 5.6 (Final) and have successfully installed PPTPD and this works great internally.
I want to access my Linux box remotely on the internet via my VPN tunnel. However I am not sure what I need to do on the Linux box to make this happen. My linux box is multihomed as follows
PSTN WWW <===========> ADSL Router Firewall <----------------> [eth1 192.168.x.x] Linux Box [eth0 172.16.x.x] <-----> to LAN
The desired topology is as shown.
VPN Client <------> Home ADSL Router <======= PSTN WWW =======> ADSL Router <------> eth1 Linux Box
1. The VPN is setup and bound to eth1 and eth0 and works well internally
2. IPSec, GRE and PPTP rules have been declared on the router which port map to eth1
However I am still unable to setup a VPN connection to Linux Box I suspect something hasn't been done or I have setup my NATing or IPTables correctly on the linux box.

I have 17 system (sys1,sys2,sys3.....sys17) in my office, and i am willing to setup a dedicated system to act as a firewall for that i have selected sys1 with two NIC(eth0 for local network and eth1 for internet) and i have configured to access internet in my office for that i have opened a wellknown port 80.but my clients are not accessing the internet..
and please check my sample IP configuration !!!
interface : eth1 (ISP IP)just for example
IP :192.168.0.2
gateway:192.168.0.1
dns:202.56.230.5
dns:202.56.230.6
Interface : eth0 (my local lan )
192.168.1.1
255.255.255.0
IP address of xp clients ranges form 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.16 with default 255.255.255.0
my question is that which gateway address and dns i have to give to my clients for accessing internet ?...

It is a wired connection through Time Warner and worked flawless with XP. It will not load any page except for google.com homepage and I cannot access any of the links in the search results of google. I know the internet works since google will load and I have done all that I can think of (ping and manually enter my connection) and nothing works. I am running the OS on a Acer Aspire M1610 desktop.

Currently I have an Acer Aspire One netbook with Windows XP on it. I want to switch to Ubuntu, so I have the OS on a flash drive and I can run it fine. The only problem is,I cant see any wireless networks in range. I know the router is working because I can connect with Windows fine. A notification also pops up telling me i have to install missing drivers. But when i click on install, the progress gets to 99% and fails. It says i need the Broadcom B43 driver, but i don't know how to get it.

I've been trying for 3 days now, gone to a couple of ubuntu sites, asked some friends who unfortunately don't have the time to assist me, and gone through several forum responses on here to try to find the solution to my problem.The problem is my inability to connect to my wireless network. I have a linksys USB device for my wireless, and the wireless router is literally right next door to my room. I am able to find my router and my neighbor's router from my computer. However I can not connect to my router. It is WPA enabled, and I have the correct password. It is just unable to connect to the network, it tries for a few minutes then doesn't connect at all and says wireless network disconnected. I am currently hooked up to an unsecured wireless network, but I can't connect to the internet. I am using firefox, but it doesn't seem to connect to any site I try.
Here is the lspci
Code:
captain@The-Ship-Of-Capn-Alex:~$ lspci
00:00.0 Host bridge: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8375 [KM266/KL266] Host Bridge
00:01.0 PCI bridge: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8633 [Apollo Pro266 AGP]
[code]....
and when I ping I type in [URL] in the terminal and all that comes up is
Code:
ping: unknown host [URL]
