Ubuntu Networking :: NFS Doesn't Mount Correctly - Network Manager And Upstart

Sep 25, 2010

I have the following problem: There are three NFS mounts in /etc/fstab, which are automatically mounted. The network connection runs over NetworkManager. Since NWM brings up the network asynchronously, NFS doesn't mount correctly on the first try, but is loaded soon enough since mount automatically retries until it works.

I can live with the fact that I have an error in my boot messages, since everything is up in time for the user. But, I need a (selfmade) upstart script which depends on the NFS mount being up. Even using "remote-filesystems" as the trigger doesn't help, because the trigger is apparently sent after the first failed try (I checked with cat /proc/mounts in my script, the nfs mounts are clearly not up.) Can I somehow force the remote mounts to wait until NWM is up, or make the NFS mount emit an event when the mounts really get mounted?

Ubuntu :: Partition Doesn't Mount Correctly At Startup?

Aug 1, 2011

my "places menu" references folders on a second partion, where I store all my personal files (ntfs, as I use it also from Windows). After boot those folders wouldn't show in Thunar. Some other programs, as Fontmatrix, wouldn't find databases stored there, what messes them up. Thunderbird has problems to recognize profiles etc.What is strange, the partition seems to be mounted at startup as I can see and select it from Thunar. Also, it appears on Desktop. After selecting the partition, closing and reopening Thunar everything works fine, places would show correctly and Fontmatrix database is ok

Ubuntu Networking :: Network Manager Running Only It Doesn't Now?

Apr 22, 2010

I had network manager running on my netbook karma install, but when I installed VNC as another display, logged into that other display and accidentally clicked on not to run network manager on startup cause there is already one running, it screwed up the network manager auto startup on my normal netbook display.I tried adding it back into auto start in settings but that has not worked.As always, thanks for any help you can give me getting this to auto start again on login, without deleting my kde cache(cos it is setup the way I want it).

Fedora Networking :: 3G Dongle Doesn't Appear In Network Manager?

Jan 20, 2009

I have run Fedora 9 and 10 on my Dell Inspiron 640m for about 6 months now and generally experience very few issues with it. Specifically I've been running Fedora 10 KDE 64bit since it was launched. Up until I had to reload it a couple of weeks ago my Vodafone Huawei E172 3G dongle worked perfectly with Network Manager. Since the reload the dongle is detected by the OS (lsusb lists it correctly, etc) but nothing I do will make it appear in Network Manager.

I've tried manually configuring a GSM connection then plugging it in, but no joy. I've also tried using it in my Acer Aspire One which runs Fedora 10 XFCE and it work, but when I try it in another Dell Laptop running Fedora 10 KDE 64 bit it doesn't. I'm assuming that a recent update must have caused some issue as it has definitely worked in both Dell laptops in the past. As mentioned I've reloaded recently but the other laptop hasn't been.

I'm unsure where to go from here. I haven't been able to get Vodafone's beta drivers working under F10 (although I did under F9) and can't find any posts on this issue. The version of Network Manager that I'm running is NetworkManager-0.7.0-1.git20090102.fc10.src.rpm, which was released shortly before I reloaded. Chances are I just didn't try my dongle between the update coming out and the reload, so didn't notice the problem before hand.

Ubuntu Networking :: Network Manager Doesn't Seem To Be Able To Use Modem To Connect To Internet

Feb 9, 2010

I have installed WvDial (apparently) but it has no icon or launcher to start it by default, how do i get it to run? I also need basic set up how to. I am running Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic) and network manager doesn't seem to be able to use my modem to connect to the internet (set up wizard works, appears connected, but then I get page not found error). Hence I wish to use WvDial to try to connect instead.

Ubuntu Networking :: Network Manager Icon Doesn't Show Wireless APs?

Feb 10, 2010

I deleted all APs in my Wireless Section of network manager. After that, the whole network manager icon disappeared. I added the icon back on the panel, but I don't think its the right one. It doesn't do the two green cicles thing when I connect my ethernet wire in. It also doesn't show any wireless AP when I left click on the icon. It doesn't even have an X mark on the bottom left of the icon when no network is detected

Ubuntu Networking :: Stick On Network Manager 0.8 Doesn't Work - Restore Karmic's Version?

Feb 26, 2010

I added a repo from launchpad to install latest Network Manager and then installed it (version 0.8). Then I decided to rollback to Karmic's version (since 0.8 doesn't work) but failed: I removed the repo from sources.list

Then apt-get udpate
Then apt-get clean
Then apt-get install network-manager...

But still 0.8 version is downloaded and installed! How can I restore Karmic's version?

Fedora Networking :: Network Manager - Adsl Connection - Ifup Ppp0 Doesn't Work

Nov 22, 2009

I have a pppoe adsl connection. When I disconnect and try to reconnect, network-manager keeps asking for my password. I type it again and again with no success. When I reboot, it works again. On ubuntu, I use pppoeconf and it works well. So on Fedora I made a connection with pppoe-setup but neither ifup nor
Code:

pppoe-connect
commands work. When I type
Code:
pppoe-connect
, it says
Code:
/usr/sbin/adsl-start: line 217: 13409 Terminated $CONNECT
"$@" > /dev/null 2>&1
. When I type

Ifup ppp0 doesn't work either. However, with exactly the same settings, ubuntu connects to the internet.

Ubuntu :: Example Upstart Script For Network Service / Daemon?

Jun 16, 2010

I'd like to create a couple of upstart scripts for some network service daemons (eg. usenet downloading service, torrent service, media management services, etc).Basically they should start after the network service is started and the system is running (runlevel 2?) but I'm just wondering if anybody has an example script or more specific start/stop conditions that I can use.

OpenSUSE Network :: Nfs Doesn't Mount At Boot

Aug 17, 2010

I use a RAIDON unit (SL3610/3620-2S-LB2 - set up with RAID1 and NFS) as a file server and want it to mount at boot. My /etc/fstab entry is

10.10.10.2:/mnt/md1/ulimnt /home/uli/ulimnt nfs rw,hard,intr 0 0

But the system does not mount at boot. SO after the system booted up the command (as root) mount -t nfs 10.10.10.2:/mnt/md1/ulimnt /home/uli/ulimnt mounts the system without problems Of course I can add a login script - but why does it not work at boot System is opensuse 11.0 - network with if up

Ubuntu Networking :: Network Manager Will Not Auto-connect To New Network After Resume?

Jul 1, 2010

I recently fixed an annoying problem and I thought it would be nice to share my solution here. The problem was that after a cycle of suspend/resume, Network Manager would only auto-connect to the same network as it was previously connected to. So, for example, if I suspended my laptop at home, and then I went to school and resumed it, it would try to connect to the home network, and then just give up. It would not connect to the school network unless I explicitly told it to.irst, I'll describe the fix. If you're having this problem, you can this. Copy the following:

Code:
#!/bin/sh
case "$1" in

Ubuntu Networking :: Network Manager Stopped Recognizing Wireless Network

Jan 24, 2011

I am a Windows refugee who discovered Ubuntu as a way to save my files from my virus-ravaged computer. Had no installation discs for Windows, so when I had to wipe my hard drive and start over, I decided to give Ubuntu a try. I've had mixed success, but that's another post...

Right now, the problem is that I installed 10.10 two weeks ago and was able to connect to the Internet with no problems - until yesterday. Suddenly, our wireless network (the only one in the vicinity) does not come up as available in Network Manager. In fact, the entire wireless option disappeared. I know there are many posts and threads on here about this, but weeding through them trying to find an answer is more frustrating than actually dealing with the problem. I know the router works because I can post on this forum from the Macbook. I really like Ubuntu and would like to keep using it, but not being able to connect to the Internet now on top of the other issues I've had is making me doubt I want to continue down this Linux road.

P.S. When I attempted an analysis through System Testing, it said something about there being no proprietary drivers?

Fedora Networking :: Wireless Enable Correctly On Boot / NFS Can Mount Properly At Boot Also?

Aug 8, 2009

I have a server that NFS exports the /home directory out to other computers. On the desktop they all work great, but on a wireless laptop, this is where the problem occurs. The wireless enables after the person logs in, rendering the NFS export /home useless on the laptops.Is there anyway to have the wireless enable correctly on the boot so that NFS can mount properly at boot also?I'm using Fedora 11 (32bit) with a wireless router that has a security of WPA-PSK [TKIP] + WPA2-PSK [AES]. I could switch to some of the older versions if necessary to get this working.

Ubuntu Networking :: Network-manager And Wicd Can See But Not Connect To Network

Jul 10, 2010

I recently put Linux on a Thinkpad T40 I got. The wireless card works out of the box--I can see nearby networks. However, I can't connect to mine. network-manager would try (spin spin spin), fail, ask for the password, and then go back to the beginning and repeat indefinitely. This happened to me on a different computer, and on that one all I had to do was use wicd instead of network-manager. So I installed wicd, but it's not working either--it hangs at "Obtaining IP address".

I've found many, many threads with people who had the same problem, but none of their fixed worked for me.

I also tried to get wifi going manually, using this guide, but that didn't work.

Ubuntu Networking :: Upstart Vs. Multiple IP Addresses ?

Jan 27, 2010

I have run into a problem that I've tracked down to being a conflict between the "Upstart" init system, and how it handles multiple (alias) IP addresses per physical interface. The summary of the problem is that the interfaces are being configured in the background in parallel with the starting of daemons. One "feature" of this (apparently intended for pluggable devices that would add or remove an interface) is that the network daemons are restarted each time an interface is added (and presumably deleted). But this is a disaster when applied to alias IP addresses.

I first saw the effects of this when during booting Ubuntu Server, the screen showed a message about OpenSSH daemon being restarted ... several times a few seconds apart each. At the time I didn't know what was causing that, but didn't worry because it ultimately was running when I needed it.

But now that I am deploying these servers for specific duty with many IP addresses per system (per network interface), the symptoms are becoming serious, and I need a solution.

1. The IP addresses are coming online too slowly. Apparently the time it takes to restart each daemon is being added to each address being configured.

2. It appears to be disrupting some daemons sometimes. Occaisionally, some daemon just ends up being hung somewhere, or dies. Too many restarts.

3. Sometimes few or even no alias addresses get configured. This might be due to a daemon getting hung, and the whole sequence just not finishing.

4. The "nsd" name server as packaged by Ubuntu doesn't deal well with this at all. It needs all its IP addresses to be up when it starts, or else it won't start. The Ubuntu package of it doesn't including any if-up script at all, although I'm not sure that would do any good.

What I need is a way to configure all these alias IP addresses so they are all configured immediately when the point in time is reached to bring up network interfaces for the first time. These are all static, and all are aliases on ethernet NIC cards plugged into PCIe cards, or integrated in the mainboard. None of them are pluggables. I did run a manual test of "ifconfig" in a loop configuring 2540 alias IP address on eth0 and it only took 2 seconds (no if-up triggers or daemon restarts here). So I know it's fast if nothing else is done between these steps.

Even for pluggable physical interfaces, I see no reason to even try to step through every alias (if it has aliases) with a daemon restart. If an alias IP address is added on later, then I can understand doing it. But if you have a list of 100 aliases for a physical interface, they really should all be done ... or at least attempted ... at once, and do any triggers needed after that.

So, how can I configure or modify Ubuntu Server 9.10 to do that?

I have each alias listed in the "/etc/network/interfaces" file with a separate "auto" and "iface" section for each one, with sequential sub-interface numbers appended to the interface name. I tried it without those sections (e.g. just "address" and other items in sequence) and that prevents the system from even coming up (bootable CD to the rescue to undo that). At least cntrl-alt-del did reboot it.

I tried to attach the /etc/network/interfaces file, but I don't know if it worked because I see no confirmations about it. if it didn't attach and you need to see it, say so, and I'll just paste it in a followup.

How do I re-enable it?I also have set YAST settings back to their originals with no luck.

Ubuntu Networking :: Gvfs-mount Doesn't Work Through Ssh?

Jan 26, 2010

setup consist of three machines: 2 servers (A and B)(ubuntu) and my local laptop Server A is a company controlled server which holds project data Server B is our office local server, which we use for development purposes. The problem occurs when i ssh from my local laptop to server B. After loggin in, i execute a script to transfer data from A to B. This script mounts server A using gvfs-mount. It fails to mount completely and gives me the following error

Code:

Error mounting location: volume doesn't implement mount

However if i log onto server B, using the servers keyboard and monitor (using a gnome session) i can execute the line. To verify that it's something related to the ssh login, i tried the following: (My local laptop is also running ubuntu) from laptop open a terminal. See the gvfs mount work as expected. open another terminal and ssh localhost tried to execute gvfs-mount from the local ssh session and i get the above mentioned error. After googling a bit, i found that it might related to dbus (which i know _nothing_ about) and i tried

Code:

dbus-launch gvfs-mount and then tried to gvfs-mount server A, but it fails again.
