Re: [CentOS] ethernet configuration
'/sbin/ifconfig -a' returns: lo Link encap:Local Loopback Your system is not seeing your network cards. It is only seeing your loopback device. I opened system-administration-network-edit-hardware device, and deleted the mac address from the box, and pressed Probe. In less than 1 second it gave the correct mac address in the box. Probe is not the reason your system has no network. What else did you change? ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
Re: [CentOS] ethernet configuration
It would be ok if you post the output of your ifconfig. I tried your command and it was working on mine On Mon, Jan 24, 2011 at 1:39 PM, Ritika Garg ritikagar...@gmail.com wrote: I gave '/sbin/ifconfig | grep HWaddr' to get the MAC address but its not returning anything. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Have you just tried running ifconfig? You may need to specify about which interface you are inquiring, or use '-a' to get them all. Try ifconfig -a | more to see what I mean, contrasted to just ifconfig. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

After this the MAC address disappeared. Internet is not working. Shall I write the MAC address and activate again? That will *probably* work. But NetworkManager and its utilities are *NOT* your friend. Learn to directly edit /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-* files. You will find features that NetworkManager does not support, at least in RHEL 5, such as setting the SEARCH= option for DHCP configurations or pair-bonding or setting up network bridges for KVM use. And you can handle backups much more consistently. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
