1. TCP/IP Configuration on Red Hat Linux
This may be a common, or FAQ question, we have installed Red Hat Linux, and we
are trying to get it to recognize a local area network (and the full
internet).
On startup, it finds and sets up the ethernet card as device eth0 (as
expected), but it does not set up the route table properly. If I do a route I
get:
127.0.0.0 no gateway netmask 255.255.255.0 device lo
which I take it as the basic local host IP stack has been set up, I can then
add the routes by hand using
route add -net ???.???.???.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev eth0
route add -net 0.0.0.0 gw ???.???.???.1 netmask 0.0.0.0
and it sees the full net, I can ping and telnet out to our local servers.
mind you if I do route after that, it seems to hang on the 0.0.0.0 entery,
interesting bug, but it works.
I know with OS/2 there is a startup file that allows you to do this
automatically, where might they be in RedHat Linux?
Problem 2, How would I set up the DNS services, again I figure a simple text
file someplace will do it.
Please reply via E-Mail since I do not follow this news group.
Thanks in advance
