Question Router/Ethernet Adapter/IP Address


Hi everyone:

I am trying to connect my Linksys BEFSR41 router to my DSL/PC. It says there to use WIndows to setup my PC to obtain IP address Automatically. (Then it says to type this in a browser: http:/192.168.1.1 )

I don't see that option in Linux. I am currently using Debian Hard Drive install from Knoppix. Also, in the KControl center, there is something called Lisa Daemon that sets up Local network browsing and tells how to search for hosts. before the lower one there just started with 213.x.x.x I changed it to 192.168.0.0, still this didn't help.

Also in KInfo Center under Network Interfaces, here are the following parameters:
Name: ppp0
IP Address: 216.99.33.121
Network Mask: 255.255.255.255
Type: Point to Point
Tate: Up
HWaddr: 00:00:00:00:00:00

Here are some related commands and their output from the terminal below.

Please assist.

Vijay

I also tried to connect to that IP address via Two Different browsers: Firefox and Konqueror. Get the same error message with both the browsers:

An error occurred while loading http://192.168.1.1:
Could not connect to host 192.168.1.1.

Finally, tried rebooting machine. Didn't help either.

I also tried, booting via the Damn Small Linux Live CD. On this OS, 192.168.1.1 is loaded Very well indeed !! Moreover, I am able to configure pppoeconf on this PC using the OS that is HD installed. The significance is that the pppoeconf went thru the router. This PC is also plugged into the router for the net.

All this indicates just a small configuration that is needed on the OS that is installed on the HD. Please assist.

Thanks.

Vijay

I thought Linksys default was http://192.168.0.1

First you need to know exactly how the router is set. IP, DHCP on, and so fore.
Not a knoppix user so not sure on the network config tools it uses. You need to edit eth0 which is your network card. ppp0 is a modem. Looks like the nic is found if it is an Intel based on e100 module that is loaded. So setup eth0 to get its IP from the router. If that does not work this is where you need to know exactly how the router is set to setup the nic with static IP and so fore.

Thanks, this worked. The IP address I provided is still correct. However, there was another icon called Network Card Configuration under networking services. I just clicked on it, asked for my root password, it tried to connect to something but then said another Pipe was running. Then rebooted my machine to try this again. But before that, I tried connecting to the IP address and it worked very well indeed.

Here is a related question. How can I enable these two PCs to share their files over this network ? I started lisa dameon on both PCs. Also started Konqueror on both PCs and typed lan:/localnetwork/

On one PC, the name box came (this is the name of both my PCs). When I clicked on that icon, nothing cameup. This had permission of dr

I started Samba on one of the PCs and got the following error message:
Unable to find any workgroups in your local network. This might be caused by an enabled firewall.

Not sure of Firewall being enabled in the other PC.

I think I need to setup both PCs to share files over Local Area Network. Wondering how to do it.

Samba would be the thing to setup. Lots of ost here on that. There are a few sticky's on it as well. Also if a firewall is running the needed ports need to be opened for the connections to work. If behind a firewall/router then it would be safe to disable the firewall for now till you learn more on networking. The firewall router defualts do not allow any connections outside to the inside.

Thank you for this information. I will read on Samba in the future.
