Ubuntu Networking :: Static IP Address And The Install Configures For A DHCP Configured Address - Network Not Starting
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.
My files are as follows:

Networking :: Static IP Address That Has A Reverse Lookup To "myipaddress.static.lyse.net" And Not Email Domain?
Apr 26, 2010I got this message on Friday from just one domain. uote:mailsrv.forthnet.gr #<mailsrv.forthnet.gr #5.5.0 smtp; 554 5.5.0 Your message was considered to be spam by the FORTHnet Antispamming Policy and was not delivered to the recipient. The following spam tests returned positive for this message:FORGED_RCVD_HELO,RCVD_IN_BRBL. For further information visitWe are not a spamming community but it seems we have a statice IP address that has a Reverse lookup to "myipaddress.static.lyse.net" and not my email domain. Would setting a cname mail.mydomain.no -> myipaddress.static.lyse.net cure this problem or are there more tricks to be performedOnce I have cured the FORGED_RCVD_HELO I can move to getting the IP removed from BARACUDA.

Jan 14, 2010I was trying to assign the static IP address of my internet connection to my home server and managed to make a mess of it. I've configured the router to assign it the address every time but when I rebooted everything the server is cut off from the network completely (rather unfortunate with a headless server...). The only file I've edited on the server when trying to do this is /etc/network/interfaces, everything else network related is default. My intention in editing the file was to make the server accept the IP address assigned by the router since the router was already configured to assign the right one. I put in

Apr 6, 2010How do I decide what IP address to enter in my config file when assigning a static IP.

Should I just use the gateway and IP that returns from "iwconfig" and "route -nee"?

Mar 21, 2011I am trying to set up a static ip address. I am using the visual interface. The problem may be that I don't know what they mean by "DNS servers" the linksys says it is 0.0.0.0 but entering that doesn't help. It says "connected" on the "notification area" icon, but I have no internet. I have rebooted the computer and the router.I deleted Auto eth0 and when I added a new connection it is now "Wired connection 1". If I change it to "automatic DHCP" instead of manual, it works fine.What am I missing, I have easily been able to set static IPs on WinXP machines, I would think Ubuntu would be easier.

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.

Ubuntu Networking :: DNS - Clients Unable To Properly Resolve The Server's Ip Address
Oct 4, 2010I'm having really weird and frustrating DNS issues with my clients unable to properly resolve the server's ip address. They can resolve each other's, and outside systems, but not the server - at least, not correctly, and not all the time.
I have one Ubuntu server set up that does both DHCP and DNS serving to the Windows systems. The server has DNS forwarding turned on to forward to OpenDNS's servers (I've tried using my ISP's dns servers but the problem remains).
The server is *not* set up as a firewall; I am actually using a DLink router for that, and the Dlink is *not* set up to serve up DHCP nor DNS.
What I am getting is that my clients - and there are nothing but Windows clients - will not resolve the name of the server. For example, if I do: ping linuxserver
I get back a false IP address of 192.168.0.64 (and I've seen once a 192.168.2.49).
If, however, I put a dot in there: ping linuxserver.
I get back the *correct* IP address of 192.168.0.2, and thereafter, ping'ng linuxserver without the dot will work. Until the dns cache expires, either naturally or with ipconfig /flushdns on the windows clients.
The client *are* getting valid dhcp leases and can resolve everything happy-happy, they just will not get the proper address of the server 100% of the time.
Ubuntu Networking :: Wlan0 Is Flukey With Static Ip Address?
Feb 4, 2010Recently, I've set up Ubuntu Server 9.10 x86_64 (no GUI). I have two NIC cards in this machine. One is a wireless card that I would like to set a static IP address to. The other is an integrated NIC. Everything works just fine when I have everything set up under DHCP. I can ping both NIC cards with no issues. But as soon as I change over to a static setting, things work unexpectedly...
Things to keep in mind:
-All machines are running under the same subnet
-All machines are connected to a wireless router (freshly flashed with the latest firmware)
-This is a fresh install of Ubuntu Server 9.10 x86_64
--Static IP address on the WIRED (eth0) NIC works great. No issues. Can ping from my wireless laptop, and can ping from the machine to the outside world (ping google.com) as well as the gateway itself with excellent response times.
If I then turn on the WIRESLESS (wlan0) NIC after setting up a static address for it in /etc/network/interfaces, then turning the wlan0 on by issuing "sudo ifconfig wlan0 up", wlan0 shows up, but does not have an IP address associated with it, even though I set it up as static. I also cannot ping wlan0 from my laptop. I assumed that was because I needed to restart the networking service. So after issuing "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart", I am able to ping wlan0 from my laptop with no issues.
Here is where things get strange. Lets say that I physically pull the plug on eth0. After dong this, wlan0 stops responding to the ping request that was initiated by my laptop at the same exact time. If I plug the cable back in, both eth0 and wlan0 begin to respond once again. But soon after I try to SSH to wlan0, wlan0 decides that it no longer wants to respond to the ping. I should note that it does ask me for a username and a password, but after I entered my password, the ping stops responding. Why should the wlan0 be affected in any way if something happens to eth0?
This all started when I set the server up with only a static configuration on wlan0. It appeared to be working well. I was able to ping the machine from my laptop as well as SSH into the machine. I went to bed and the next morning, I was no longer able to ping the machine. I let the ping run for a small amount of time with a few responses here and there. Then after a little more time of letting ping run, it tends to respond. Almost like I bothered it enough to decide that it was appropriate to start working again.
Ideally, I would like to have ONLY a wireless connection. But if I need to have eth0 up, it would be great to have option work as well. Bottom line is that my wireless is flukey. And I would like to find out why.

Oct 29, 2009I cannot get a static IP to work on Fedora 11. Using Network Manager, I set the IP to 192.168.1.130, the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0 and the gateway to 192.168.1.0 but it doesn't work. I also tried 192.168.1.1 for the gateway, which is what I used in FC7 but still no luck. I verified that these are the settings that I used in FC7, I don't remember ever having a problem before with this.I do remember someone telling me not to use Network Manager in conjunction with Network Configuration... does that make sense? That was for FC9 on my laptop and it was for the wireless so perhaps that doesn't apply here. I did try unchecking the box for Network Manager and using strictly Network Configuration but it still didn't work.

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.

Networking :: Hosting A Website Without A Static IP Address?
Apr 18, 2010My new line provider/ISP won't give me a static IP address - it's DHCP or nothing. Is there some trick I can use to allow myself to host a web page? I was thinking of getting a static address elsewhere, like at my sometime place of employment, and redirecting, but it just moves the problem downstream.Realistically, assume I leave my computer on and hardly ever reboot (CentOS is pretty stable), then will I typically keepthe same address for weeks or months at a time? If so, I could live with logging in to my registrar a few times a year to change the address, as bizarre as that would be

Networking :: Static IP Address With 3G Usb Stick Connection?

I am using gnome network manager in Ubuntu 10.04 but it there is no option for me there for a static IPV4 address. I know with a wireless or ethernet connection you would modify /et/dhcp3/dhclient.conf and/or /etc/network/interfaces. I don't think those two would do for a PPP connection. When I go to /etc/ppp/ I see no .conf file that I could modify.

Fedora Networking :: No Internet Connection With Static IP Address?
Feb 17, 2009I am a windows user with no linux experience prior to Friday. Im setting up a music server (SqueezeCenter) running Fedora 10.
With the help of posts of this site Ive made good progress with complicated stuffnamely getting Samba and VNC working. My Fedora machine and my windows machines now see each others shared files, and I can control my Fedora machine from my windows machine. (The Fedora machine will ultimately be headless.)
But Im having trouble with a seemingly simple issue setting up my Fedora box with a static IP address. With DHCP enabled on my network Ethernet adapter, all works fine. I then used the System>Administration>Network menu to disable DHCP and to assign the same IP address that DHCP chose. When I do this, two cases need to be distinguished:
1. If I keep the box checked for Controlled by Network Manager, the Network Manager Applet reports a network connection, I nevertheless cannot access the internet, but my Fedora machine is able to communicate with my Squeezebox music player (connected to my network via my DSL modem Ethernet connections, and with a fixed IP address). 2. If I uncheck the box Controlled by Network Manger, then the Network Manager Applet reports no network connection and my Fedora machine is not able to communicate with my Squeezebox music player (and I of course have no internet connectivity).
Ive seen references on other posts suggesting that the Network Manager service be disabled. But I see no way to manually configure the network.

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.

and please check my sample IP configuration !!!
interface : eth1 (ISP IP)just for example
IP :192.168.0.2
