by My problem is with kernel 2.1.26, NetKit.09, net-tools-1.32-alpha
I am using a NE-2000 clone card
I can ping localhost (127.0.0.1) but cannot ping myhost (253.253.154.32)
The file rc.inet1 is originally from Slakware with slight modifications
#!/bin/sh
#
# rc.inet1 This shell script boots up the base INET system.
#
# Version: @(#)/etc/rc.d/rc.inet1 1.01 05/27/93
#
HOSTNAME=`hostname`
# Attach the loopback device.
/sbin/ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1
# /sbin/route add -net 127.0.0.0 netmask 255.0.0.0 dev lo
# IF YOU HAVE AN ETHERNET CONNECTION, use these lines below to configure the
# eth0 interface. If you're only using loopback or SLIP, don't include the
# rest of the lines in this file.
# Edit for your setup.
IPADDR="253.253.154.32" # REPLACE with YOUR IP address!
NETMASK="255.255.255.0" # REPLACE with YOUR netmask!
NETWORK="253.253.154.0" # REPLACE with YOUR network address!
BROADCAST="253.253.154.255" # REPLACE with YOUR broadcast address, if you
# have one. If not, leave blank and edit below.
GATEWAY="253.253.154.1" # REPLACE with YOUR gateway address!
# Uncomment the line below to initialize the ethernet device.
/sbin/ifconfig eth0 ${IPADDR} broadcast ${BROADCAST} netmask ${NETMASK}
# Uncomment these to set up your IP routing table.
#/sbin/route add -net ${NETWORK} netmask ${NETMASK} dev eth0
/sbin/route add default gw ${GATEWAY} metric 1
# End of rc.inet1
The route add for the network that is direct for the interface is
removed because it appears that ifconfig automatically sets up a
route to the default network for that interface.
