Network Configuration Saga


Ok, I'm having a weird problem here. I'll describe what has happened so far so you can have a picture of it...

New computer. Installed Slack 11 in one partition and Windows XP in another. Configured Slack's network. Configured Windows' network. Went back to slack, network was strangely not working.

I spent a long time trying to figure it out, since I couldn't configure network again under linux! Whatever I did, when I tried to ping my router (192.168.0.1), it would return "Destination unreachable". Routing table seems to be ok... destination 0.0.0.0 through gateway 192.168.0.1 up, but I could ping myself (duh) and broacast only. Couldn't resolve addresses either, even though resolv.conf has the proper DNSs... Using the SAME configuration as in Windows, it wouldn't work.

Since I have 2 network adapters, I tried configuring the other one, but no luck at all. No one could understand what was happening. So I left it alone and started using Windows for internet surfing, and Linux only for my other stuff.

Windows was properly configured on device eth1, and eth0 connection was disabled. I had a friend come over and he configured eth0 the same way I tried one hundred times, and it worked... I had internet access, tried to reboot and see if it wouldn't mess up and it didn't!
Then I went back to windows and configured network for eth0 so I wouldn't have to keep switching cables whenever I went from one OS to the other. As soon as I finished it, I went back to Linux and guess what? Yes... no internet AGAIN. I changed everything back to the way it was before (Windows's connection on the second ethernet adapter, eth1), but it was too late, I can't configure the network anymore... No one I talk to can even imagine what's going on.

Maybe someone here can enlighten me, please >_>

Thanks

Go in the BIOS and check if you have an option PNP OS or PNP. Set it to BIOS. Windows will not like this, but Linux will.

Did you run netconfig?

What does your network config files look like because I do not remember the format that Slackware uses?

PnP is set to NO (BIOS will configure).

I ran netconfig, many times, and restarted inet after it.
And what network file do you need? /rc.d/rc.inet (1, 2 and d), /etc/networks... ?

I just found out 2 things at start up:

1. rc.inet1 lines 1, 2 and 256: eth_up: command not found

Fortunately I learned that slack 10.2 + doesn't use eth_up anymore, so I'll just # it.

2. dnsmasq: failed to create a listening socket: Address already in use

What's going on here? o_o

Post the following files.

/etc/networks
/etc/rc.netdevice
etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf
/etc/resolv.conf
/etc/rc.d/rc.inet1
/etc/rc.d/rc.inet2
/etc/rc.d/rc.ip_forward
/etc/rc.d/rc.wireless
/etc/rc.d/rc.wireless.conf
/etc/rc.d/rc.wlan
/etc/hosts
/etc/host.allow
/etc/host.deny

Also /var/log/messages will be nice to have. Do not truncate.

Do you need to be connected to a proxy in order to connect to the internet?

Did you try to include either or both noapic, noapci, apci=off, apcioff at the boot line?

Is the firewall up?

Did you mess around with sysctl?

Is the card a PCI or wireless NIC?

Did you mess around with any DHCP config files?

If you are using ReiserFS, did you include notail as the mount option? If not may have to re-install a packages?

Assuming that you are using DHCP to acquire an IP address, my guess is that dhcpcd is not starting at boot. To run in manually
Code:
dhcpcd eth0

I'm gonna grab those files and post here asap.

I don't need proxy to connect to the internet.
I haven't tried noapic, noapci, apci=off, apcioff at boot line.
Firewall isn't blocking my access since I somehow got internet access for 1 day, and I have access through windows.

I haven't messed out with sysctl.

The card isn't PCI nor wireless, it's onboard. I have a ASUS M2N-SLi Deluxe with nForce chipset.

I haven't messed around with DHCP and I don't use DHCP either.

I'm not using using ReiserFS.

Be back soon with those codes.
Thanks a lot.

My network files:

/etc/networks:
Code:
#
# networks	This file describes a number of netname-to-address
#		mappings for the TCP/IP subsystem.  It is mostly
#		used at boot time, when no name servers are running.
#

loopback	127.0.0.0
localnet	192.168.0.0

# End of networks.
/etc/netdevice:
I don't have such file.

/etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf
Code:
# /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf
#
# This file contains the configuration settings for network interfaces.
# If USE_DHCP[interface] is set to "yes", this overrides any other settings.
# If you don't have an interface, leave the settings null ("").

# You can configure network interfaces other than eth0,eth1... by setting
# IFNAME[interface] to the interface's name. If IFNAME[interface] is unset
# or empty, it is assumed you're configuring eth<interface>.

# Several other parameters are available, the end of this file contains a
# comprehensive set of examples.

# =============================================================================

# Config information for eth0:
IPADDR[0]="192.168.0.120"
NETMASK[0]="255.255.255.0"
USE_DHCP[0]=""
DHCP_HOSTNAME[0]=""

# Config information for eth1:
IPADDR[1]="192.168.0.121"
NETMASK[1]="255.255.255.0"
USE_DHCP[1]=""
DHCP_HOSTNAME[1]=""

# Config information for eth2:
IPADDR[2]=""
NETMASK[2]=""
USE_DHCP[2]=""
DHCP_HOSTNAME[2]=""

# Config information for eth3:
IPADDR[3]=""
NETMASK[3]=""
USE_DHCP[3]=""
DHCP_HOSTNAME[3]=""

# Default gateway IP address:
GATEWAY="192.168.0.1"

# Change this to "yes" for debugging output to stdout.  Unfortunately,
# /sbin/hotplug seems to disable stdout so you'll only see debugging output
# when rc.inet1 is called directly.
DEBUG_ETH_UP="no"

## Example config information for wlan0.  Uncomment the lines you need and fill
## in your info.  (You may not need all of these for your wireless network)
#IFNAME[4]="wlan0"
#IPADDR[4]=""
#NETMASK[4]=""
#USE_DHCP[4]="yes"
#DHCP_HOSTNAME[4]="icculus-wireless"
#DHCP_KEEPRESOLV[4]="yes"
#DHCP_KEEPNTP[4]="yes"
#DHCP_KEEPGW[4]="yes"
#DHCP_IPADDR[4]=""

##WLAN_KEY[4]="D5AD1F04ACF048EC2D0B1C80C7"

#WLAN_WPA[4]="wpa_supplicant"
#WLAN_WPADRIVER[4]="ndiswrapper"

## Some examples of additional network parameters that you can use.
## Config information for wlan0:
#IFNAME[4]="wlan0"              # Use a different interface name nstead of
                                # the default 'eth4'
#HWADDR[4]="00:01:23:45:67:89"  # Overrule the card's hardware MAC address
#MTU[4]=""                      # The default MTU is 1500, but you might need
                                # 1360 when you use NAT'ed IPSec traffic.
#DHCP_KEEPRESOLV[4]="yes"       # If you dont want /etc/resolv.conf overwritten
#DHCP_KEEPNTP[4]="yes"          # If you don't want ntp.conf overwritten
#DHCP_KEEPGW[4]="yes"           # If you don't want the DHCP server to change
                                # your default gateway
#DHCP_IPADDR[4]=""              # Request a specific IP address from the DHCP
                                # server
#WLAN_ESSID[4]=DARKSTAR         # Here, you can override _any_ parameter
                                # defined in rc.wireless.conf, by prepending
                                # 'WLAN_' to the parameter's name. Useful for

# If you intend to run your Linux box as a router, i.e. as a
# computer that forwards and redistributes network packets, you
# will need to enable IP packet forwarding in your kernel.
#
# To activate IP packet forwarding at boot time, make this
# script executable:  chmod 755 /etc/rc.d/rc.ip_forward
#
# To disable IP packet forwarding at boot time, make this
# script non-executable:  chmod 644 /etc/rc.d/rc.ip_forward

# Start IP packet forwarding:

  # When using IPv4 packet forwarding, you will also get the
  # rp_filter, which automatically rejects incoming packets if the
  # routing table entry for their source address doesn't match the
  # network interface they're arriving on.  This has security
  # advantages because it prevents the so-called IP spoofing,
  # however it can pose problems if you use asymmetric routing
  # (packets from you to a host take a different path than packets
  # from that host to you) or if you operate a non-routing host
  # which has several IP addresses on different interfaces.  To
  # turn rp_filter off, uncomment the lines below:
  #if [ -r /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/rp_filter ]; then

# Wireless network card setup.
#
# This script sets up PCI, USB, and 32-bit Cardbus wireless devices
# NOT 16-bit PCMCIA cards!  Those are configured in /etc/pcmcia/.
# Single parameter to this script is the name of a network interface.
# Normally this script is called from rc.inet1 rather than run
# directly.
#
# This script is a modified '/etc/pcmcia/wireless' script
# 09/apr/2004 by Eric Hameleers
# 16/sep/2004 * Eric Hameleers * Fixed iwspy and iwpriv commands
# 08/apr/2005 * Eric Hameleers * Allow per-interface overrides of the wireless
#                                parameters (see /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf)
# 11/apr/2005 * Eric Hameleers * Tune wpa_supplicant interactions.
# 23/apr/2005 * Eric Hameleers * First configure card with iwconfig,
#                                before starting wpa_supplicant
# 27/apr/2005 * Eric Hameleers * Multiple 'iwpriv $INTERFACE set' commands.
# 14/feb/2006 * Eric Hameleers * Better error messages; alternative way of
#                                getting HWADDR; parametrized WPA_WAIT value.
#                                Don't kill an already running wpa_supplicant.
# 29/apr/2006 * Pat Volkerding * Reverted HWADDR change, since it relies on
#                                a binary (macaddr) that is not built or
#                                installed by default since it is not
#                                compatible with all interfaces.
# 15/aug/2006 * Eric Hameleers * Added missing "" around $ESSID, which broke
#                                ESSIDs that contain a space character.

To me the config files looks alright. I think it is the poor Marvell NIC support in Linux that is giving you problems. I suggest use /sbin/modinfo for the Marvell modules. Then try to unload the modules and load them up using some options. Look up the man pages for modprobe.

Try upgrade the kernel to the latest stable version. If that does not work, I suggest buy a PCI or PCI Express NIC card.

I fixed it! Lol...

I compiled a new kernel (2.6.20.6) and it worked alright. Guess I missed something (many times) when installing my preview kernel...

Thanks a lot for your attention!
