Thank you so mucho Mr. Brown.
I'll get Fedora core 6 and test it.
I'm now just testing with Fedora, next Debian an Solaris.

Also remember to check out /var/log/messages.  Often if there are
problems they are logged there...

 I am not sure which version of the kernel is shipped with Fedora, but I
did not manage to make OpenSuSE 10.1, 64 bits work with Broadcom
BCM4401-B0 card. It just wrote thousands of errors to the /var/log/messages.
I googled for the error and no similar error since 2003.
I am sorry that I cannot be more specific, as I moved to another version
of OpenSuSE that was suitable for me and avoided the problem. I don't keep
those errors, nor the specific version of the components. Anyway, I think
that  kernel version was 2.6.16, with patches applied from SuSE.
My (coward) suggestion is to try FC6, if it is suitable for your needs and
see if the problem remains or not.

Regards (and sorry for the lousy clue ...)

Hello to all the comunity beowulf.
I'm Informatic Systems Administrator student in Colombia

I'm tring to install a Beowulf cluster with OSCAR in Fedora Core 5 in a
set
of IBM Machines:
- CPU = Pentium D 64 bits
- RAM = 2GB

I got some problems with the NICs, so, Fedora recognize it. Buut, i cannot

obtain an IP address from the IDS; I'm tring to made a LAN with 2 of those

PCs, guess what i can't made it, I give it the IP address but can't made
any
comunication; the Fedora's firewall is down.
The NiCs are Broadcom 440.
Any sugestión?


Please describe the way you are getting IP addresses?  Is there a DHCP
server out there somewhere?  Are you setting them static?  What tool did
you use to configure the network?  What is the output of

 ifconfig

and

 route

on each node at this time?  People here can probably help you, but
you'll have to give details of EXACTLY what your setup is, as there are
a thousand ways to set up a network incorrectly.

Thanks a lot
