My Fedore 7 computer is not get online.

almost000 · 06-12-2007, 08:32 PM

I can ping the computer and the computer can ping.

Well I have setup a computer oddly its also Fedore 7 as a router. I have four other windows computers and they seem to get online fine. Is there a winsock fix tool that removes everything, to add it back. I am using firestarter to get on line and the windows boxes seem to like it. but it seems as just as soon as I install this computer it hated me lol.

dsl modem (self pppoe )> Fedore 7(router aka the computer I am on now) > gigbit switch > < LAN

windows xp, windows 2000, windows xp, windows ME

, Fodore 7.

Okay fine the ME computer I have not turn on in months lol

Well I have tried change in DNS address to see if that helped. no luck then I entered in 64.233.167.99 (aka google.com) in Firefox. but that did not work. I can get on my web server, web min. ftp servers on it and the remote computers. .

PS: the Computer wants to be a server and hates its clients. lol

computer acking as a router

Code:

[root@localhost sbin]# route
bash: route: command not found

the computer that is not working.

Code:

[root@al sbin]# route
bash: route: command not found

route should be installed.

it is used to setup the default gateway for the machine.

I should say I am using Firestarter. and that my windows computers are getting online just fine. I would think that install ssomething like that would mess up firestarter.

slimm609 · 06-12-2007, 11:37 PM

well route is used for the kernel routing table also.

almost000 · 06-12-2007, 11:39 PM

Well I don't think that is going to help because this computer is working fine. and the computer that is not is just on the lan.

Code:

[root@localhost lea]# /sbin/route
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
192.168.10.0    *               255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 eth0
69.150.86.0     *               255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 eth1
169.254.0.0     *               255.255.0.0     U     0      0        0 eth1

Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
192.168.10.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
169.254.0.0 * 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
default 192.168.10.100 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0

slimm609 · 06-12-2007, 11:49 PM

Code:

default         69.150.86.28    0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 eth1

the default route is working for this machine so it knows how to handle unknown addresses but the odd think is that the ip_forwarding on the 86.28 is working cause it know where to send the packets to the next hop.

what command did you use to show that

the default route should always point out so it looks like that is the problem

Well the think is it too a long time to replay the late line and to think that the gateway ip was not right. I don't get. what would cause system-config-network to run slow? by the way I changed that last number . its not that I don't tusrt you. its that this in not a private post. thank you for your help.

almost000 · 06-13-2007, 12:01 AM

I ran /sbin/route > a.txt

then I copyed that file off the ftp server

this router is not 192.168.10.100 its 192.168.10.1

almost000 · 06-13-2007, 12:08 AM

is there a cashe that builds up that would cause that too be so slow. I am still waiting for it to save the changes.

almost000 · 06-13-2007, 12:41 AM

Well I remove the massive lines from the host file.

Code:

[root@localhost lea]# thank-you slimm609!!!
running thank-you 
system overloaded
