OpenSUSE Network :: Setting Host Name On Router

Apr 8, 2010

I am running

Code:

On my laptop (HPDV7), using DHCP for network access, KDE4.

I use Network Manager to manage wired and wireless connectivity.

I also have Samba server running for connectivity to Windows machines.

My router runs DD-WRT.

How do I tell this HPDV7 system to propagate a Host Name up to the router?

In the DD-WRT status screen, I see Host Name as "*" associated with the assigned IP address.

I cannot, for example, ping my HPDV7 machine from my windows machine, I assume because the router (also providing DNS for my network) does not provide the name to address translation.

I CAN ping the IP address directly, and Samba connectivity from the Windows machine to HPDV7 works.

Ubuntu :: Sudo: Unable To Resolve Host / Setting Up Network Sharing With Samba?

May 21, 2010

I am having a problem with Ubuntu 10.04. I was setting up network sharing with Samba. Set up went fine, then I decided to change the hostname.

Following instructions I found on the web, I edited etc/samba/samba.conf to reflect my desired hostname.

Now I have to use superuser to run synaptic or update center. I don't know what else I have "broken".

I would like to change my hostname, if I did it incorrectly for 10.04 please enlighten me.

Networking :: Setting Up Linux Box As IPv6 Router To Replace Netgear WNR1000 Wireless Router?

Jun 18, 2011

I want to set up a Linux box as a wireless router to replace our existing Netgear WNR1000 router, as I believe the Netgear does not support the coming IPv6 protocol. Unfortunately, it is not flashable with OpenWRT or DD-WRT presently.

As we have Comcast, our cable modem acts as a dumb modem according to the customer support guy I talked to, and our router is the one that asks for the IP address from DHCP. Thus, when Comcast switches over to IPv6, I don't believe my existing router would work, correct?

My idea is to take a Linux box and put two NICs and a wireless adapter in it, using IPCop or Smoothwall to set up a router. I could then enable IPv6 support for when we have IPv6 with Comcast. Is that possible? Would there be a way to get BIND to hand out private IP addresses in the same subnet on the both the LAN NIC and the wireless card?

OpenSUSE Network :: Hostname Not Saved In Router Table / Broadcast It To Entire Network?

Jun 13, 2010

I setup the hostname for my linux machine to Linux. If I try ping Linux from the same computer it works. If I try from another computer inside my network the host can not be resolved. If I ping the IP from another computer it works.

I take a look in my router at DHCP client list and my linux machine doesn't have the Hostname set up.

How to broadcast the hostname to the entire network?

OpenSUSE Network :: Cannot Resolve Host Names On Local Network?

Mar 9, 2010

I have a mac and an openSUSE box connected wirelessly to a router. From my mac, if I ping the Linux machine by both ip address and hostname "elmo.local", I get a response. If I ping my mac from the Linux machine using its ip address, I get a response. However, if I ping the mac from the Linux box using its name "kermit.local" - nothing!

This means in order to share files between them via the network, I have to use the ip address rather than name, but I'd rather not. When I had Ubuntu installed instead of openSUSE this all worked fine out of the box, so I'm assuming it's a problem with the setup of openSUSE rather than the router or the mac.

OpenSUSE Network :: Network / DNS - Can't Access Any Internet Resources Or Router

Jul 30, 2010

I'm having a strange problem with my network connection/DNS. I turn computer the on and it recognizes and connects to wireless or wired but I can't access any Internet resources or my router. If I ping the default gateway, I get no response and I get DNS errors from any network services that run at start up. If I stop and start the network daemon then it all works fine until the next time I turn on my laptop. It does this for both wireless and wired connection.

I've tried to edit the network interface information in YaST but it says that configuration is handled by knetworkmanager and I have no idea where that information is accessed. I should point out that it all worked fine until I tried to connect to open WAP at my school and couldn't so I connected to the wired network. Next morning I had this problem when connecting to my home network. My questions are 1. What could be the cause of this error and 2. where does one configure the network interfaces when using knetworkmanager

OpenSUSE Network :: Network Connection Fails To Go Past Router

May 16, 2011

So up until I updated from Opensuse 11.3 to 11.4, I hadn't any issues with my network connection. At least none worth mentioning. Once I installed 11.4, I've had weird issues with varying lengths of connection. Sometimes I can't connect anywhere, sometimes I can only get to the router, sometimes I'm 100%. I'd fiddle with YAST until everything worked. I honestly have no clue whether or not anything I did had any effect.

Enough of the iffy history, here's what's happening now. For the past few weeks up until last night, I have been at 100% connectivity. I never turned off my computer until last night (it just shut itself off, like the cord was unplugged. I dunno what happened, maybe it was my foot, maybe the PSU. I think it has happened before.). When I turned it back on, I was only able to connect as far as my router (192.168.1.1, a D-Link Gaming router that has always been very good to me). I could not make it to my modem (192.168.0.1, a Quest DSL modem. Once I can get here, then usually I'm good to go 100%).

I tried again this afternoon, and no change. I then get the crazy idea to unplug the ethernet cable from it's PCI-card home and return it to the onboard port (which I long ago declared defunct). Immediately after plugging it into that port, I ran "ping 192.168.0.1" and I started getting returns. I open up Firefox and try to load an external page, and nothing happens. I go back to the console that I was pinging from, and it had stopped. I start pinging my router, and no luck. What I conclude from my little experiment is that the router is not at fault.

1. It did not change at all between being at 100% and being at 0% after reboot.
2. I was able to get returns from the modem, past the router, for a brief period of time while using the defunct ethernet port.

Since I never had these problems before updating to 11.4, I'm inclined to believe that it was the update that started these problems.

OpenSUSE Network :: Host Not Recognized On Network

Mar 16, 2011

I have just loaded Suse 11.4 and have had (2) problems, 1st: When I installed some additional programs, such as, Scribus, the system showed them as installed but they did not show up in the "applications" menu any where. I finally tracked them down and edited them in and they work fine - Why aren't they being automatically placed into the menu system? 2nd: I have a home network setup and all systems can see and work with each other, however, the host system is not shown as if it did not exist at all. for example; if I go to "network services" and select "Samba Shares" if other computers are connected it will show them but not the host - if no other computers are connected it shows nothing. On my 11.3 system it shows the host eg; "Linux-12fx blah blah" this is of course my host machine. I have replicated all of my settings on the 11.3 settings on my 11.4 system - no luck!

OpenSUSE Wireless :: Network Manager Stuck On 'setting Network Address' Then Continuously Prompts For Hex Or ASCII Key

May 28, 2011

When I attempt to connect to a wireless network, the network manager asks me for the network's password, then says 'setting network address' for 20 or so seconds, then asks me for some random Hex or ASCII key in the same type of window I put the password in (Secrets for Noel -- KDE Daemon). Since a key is already typed into the window, I press OK, which then causes the network manager to go back to 'setting network address', then the window pops up again and keeps repeating itself.

I'm running Opensuse 11.4 with KDE, and my driver is ath9k. I don't know much about linux so please don't tell me to 'recompile this' or 'change this setting' without explaining how to do it. Please help, I've been unable to connect to wireless in OpenSUSE for 2 weeks now.

OpenSUSE Network :: Using A DNS Behind A Router?

Aug 19, 2010

I've set up a server using 11.3 and ISPConfig 2. The problem is that I barely understand DNS. So the question is - If I set up two domains through ISPConfig do I have the registrar have BOTH domains pointed to my IP address and then let my DNServer figure out where to send requests or do I have to have 2 different IP addresses?

OpenSUSE Network :: Nfs/Nis Using OS 11.3 Machine As Router

Dec 2, 2010

I had an OS 11.3 machine running as an Nis server with Nfs, also providing dns, squid, samba shares and running apache

Internet connection provided by a netgear router at 192.168.0.1, server at 192.168.0.2, clients at 192.168.0.3, 192.168.0.4, etc. The clients all being configured to use the server for dns the squid running on it for their proxy, logging on with Nis using the exported server's Nfs /home share as /home on the clients

Everything was setup through Yast with some conf file editing being done later for samba and apache and all working brilliantly

Until ...

I added another network card to the server machine and set it up as a router, where they will be placed once ready the router providing the internet connection doesn't have gigabit ethernet

So I figured if I had gigabit cards in the clients and a gigabit card in the server set up for the internal zone and providing routing, then the clients using it as their router the local stuff would be more responsive, especially as they are using an nfs share for /home

I set the clients up to use the server at 192.168.1.1 for their router and changing their own local ip addresses to suit, i.e. 192.168.1.2, 192.168.1.3 etc and rebooted

Nis and nfs were no longer working, so I logged on as the local user, ecky, who's home directory isn't in the nfs share but at /ecky, the internet connection worked fine and so did everything else, dns, proxy, etc

I tried changing the nfs share and nis server to the internal card's ip, 192.168.1.1 and that didn't work either

Samba shares work at both 192.168.0.2 and 192.168.1.1, so my problem is that nis logons and nfs mounts don't work from either address

I've tried to give as much info as possible on what I've done without being too confusing ... don't know whether I succeeded

Darned annoying cos it took me a day and a half to get the gigabit card to detect properly in one of the machines...

OpenSUSE Network :: No Network On Xen Host

Mar 12, 2011

EDIT: Thread name should be "No network on XEN guest ofcourse". I am trying to run OpenSUSE 11.3 as guest in OpenSUSE 11.2 as host. First problem I came across was libvirtd service wasnt started and after that I was able to install guest OS. Now there is a problem as guest doesnt have connection with internet.
Here is the script for the guest

memory=512
maxmem=512

Here are the images that show how it is all configured taken from Virutal Manager.

The last image is from the guest config I just named it badly. Observe that xen is up and runing and there are no others issue this far.

OpenSUSE Network :: SMTP - No Route To Host

Jan 3, 2010

OpenSUSE version: 11.2 *and* 10.0 I am unable to send email. It appears I am being blocked by my ISP [URL]... A Wireshark trace shows ICMP type 3 Code 13 - "Administratively filtered". It's important to note that I don't know exactly when the problem started, because I seldom use my ISP email account, I use Yahoo web mail due to the "throwaway" nature if I get hit with spam. I only discovered the problem when testing the functionality of 11.2. I suspect the problem started several months ago: I restored openSUSE 10.0 and the problem exists there too. I wish I'd sent that last email via 10.0 before the upgrade.

The weird thing is that using Windows 2000 box I can get a successful connection using telnet (Telnet also fails on the openSUSE box.) It appears to me there is something in the Linux TCP stack that Teksavvy doesn't like. I am on dial up and I pointed this out to Teksavvy tech support, as I am probably the only person left on dialup and the reason no one else has reported the problem

OpenSUSE Network :: Conected To Router But No Internet?

Sep 6, 2009

I've seen lots of other issues similar to mine on this forum and others, but had no joy in resolving this problem. I can connect to my router web interface, using both wireless and ethernet cable, but cannot connect to the internet with either.

I can't ping any IP address or hostname. When I type route into the terminal, I get:

Code:
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
default 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
192.168.1.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 1 0 0 eth0
loopback * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo
default 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
default 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0

There are extra 'default' destinations in there, because of things I have tried from other posts. I have had internet working. It was working for months, but it all stopped working when I installed Skype, vpnc and kvpnc (VPN Client GUI). I don't know if this is just coincidence. I did get connected to my VPN, but shortly after installing Skype, everything outside my local network (i.e. internet and VPN) stopped working.

I'm writing this from another laptop on the local network, so the internet obviously working fine - just not from my own laptop. I'm running openSUSE 11.1 (i586), KDE 4.1.3 "release 4.10.4". And in "sysinfo:/" it says Network Status: "You are online" Like I said, internet doesn't work for both ethernet and wireless. Can't ping anything. I can access router web interface at 192.168.1.1

OpenSUSE Network :: 11.2 Acting As Router Firewall

Mar 29, 2010

switched recently to 11.2 and it works fine for me as workstation I want to set up a router separating a part of the network and also acting as a firewall/proxy... Configured 2 Ethernet Interfaces, checked Ip forwarding in Yast but it does not forward the packets from the "internal" to the "external" network. Hovewer after I set up my router as default for machines on internal network I can ping the external interface but no adress on external network (particularly the one of the default router) !!! From the router I can reach both networks and the net via default gateway on external. Tried to:

a) switch firewall completely off
b) iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT
c) masquarading internal adresses to the external network

my interfaces configuration looks like:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:13:D4:E3:A2:7B
inet addr:192.168.1.34 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
inet6 addr: fe80::213:d4ff:fee3:a27b/64 Scope:Link

OpenSUSE Network :: Connect To The Router - But Not The Internet?

Jul 17, 2010

installed openSUSE 11.3 and round that both wireless and ethernet connections could connect ok to my router but couldnt access the internet. I think its a bug because I didn't have this issue in previous versions of openSUSE.

The solution is to go into the ip settings in the wireless configuration, select the option to manually assign ddresses (not DCHP) and

- enter the ip address of your router in the default gateway and DNS server addresses

- manually assign an ip address to your computer rather than have the router do it

- it has to be in the same range as your router -n normally 192.168.1.x where x can be any number not already used.

OpenSUSE Network :: DHCP Configuration Using Host Declaration
