I'm having bit of a problem configuring my connection to internet.
I recently installed Linux From Scratch 6.1, it's a description on how to make a distro using only sources packages.
After a lot of trouble it's booting, but now I'm having a problem in configuring my internet connection.
I use iproute2 and dhcpcd to set up my connection.
I have a ethernet card connected to a router/modem, which uses dhcp.
It's a hardware router/modem which works super with debian and all the windows installs in the network.
I use the following commands to set up my connection:
Code:
$ip link set eth0 up dynamic on
$ip addr add 192.168.2.0/24 dev eth0
$ip route add default via 192.168.2.1 dev eth0
$dhcpcd eth0
I installed lynx from source. My distro is very limited so I don't have X yet.
When I use lynx I can connect to the web-interface of my router, but not to other sites.
I can also ping the router and other active PC's on the network but not beyond it.
I tried pinging a server which is supposed to be always active using it's ip, but didn't get a response.
Has anyone got a clue what the problem could be?
Am I missing some essential program or is my kernel configured wrong?
Thanks in advance for the help,
Hugo
