Re: [MLUG] RTNETLINK answers: Network is unreachable

They have changed, but that won't prevent a network connection from happening.  That's just for DNS resolution (i.e. how to convert mlug.missouri.edu to 128.206.whatever).

This issue sounds more like binding the driver to the interface.  It is worth trying another network card though to see if it might work better.

Didn't the name servers change from 2.252 to  128.206.10.3 and 128.206.10.2?

You may want to call the op's center 4-2182 and double check me.

Worst case comment out the current nameserver entries and manually add the new ones.

A shot in the dark...  ;)

Ah, debugging questions.  I can deal with them.

Static IP: 128.206.25.130

/etc/resolv.conf

nameserver 128.206.2.252

nameserver 128.206.2.242

search missouri.edu

Yes, I've checked the cables.

The server is on a VLAN in the MU system.  Might there be a problem

beyond my port?

Thanks,

James.

Are you static or dynamic for your IP?  What does your /etc/

resolv.conf look like?  Double checked that your cable is good?

I needed to move my production server, Ronald, (running Red Hat 9

nicely rearranged and ready for the return of the computers.

After issuing the "halt" command Ronald, issued a few protest about

it's

inability to umount /usr2 due to a file being too large.  But

otherwise

it went down nicely (I think).

I've restarted the box and everything appears to be running nicely -

except that it can't get to nor be seen by the internet (nor campus

network for that matter).

A "/sbin/ifup eth0" produces the responses:

e100: eth0 NIC Link is Up 100 Mbps Half duplex

RTNETLINK answers: Network is unreachable

RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument

I've been "visited" by my boss and received comments from users

that the

server is down.  Their comments haven't been helpful, hopefully MLUG

members will be more constructive.

Please!
