I seem to have some network issues with my gentoo install |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I have /etc/init.0/net.eth0 configured to run at the default runlevel. |
| 4 |
It appears to startup ok. No firewall has been installed yet. |
| 5 |
The network appears to startup eth0 correctly, obtaining a dhcp address from my |
| 6 |
cable provider via the router. |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
The problem is that I do not seem to have a network connection. |
| 9 |
pinging http://www.google.com produces no response. |
| 10 |
attempting to emerge x11-xorg gives a 'temporary failure in name resolution' |
| 11 |
pinging the router ip address similarly elicits no response. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
The etc/conf.d/net file contains |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
dns_domain_lo="homenetwork" |
| 16 |
config_eth0=( "dhcp" ) |
| 17 |
dhcp_eth0="nodns nontp nonis" |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
The /etc/conf.d/hostname file contains |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
HOSTNAME="tux" |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
If I run /etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart, I get |
| 24 |

| 25 |

With the corresponding 'OK' comments on the right of the screen. |

Nothing extra appears in dmesg in response to this command. |

Any advice gratefully received. |
