Hi,
I recently finished with LFS book and now I try to get my
Internet-connection working. First, I wondered that "ifconfig" is not
installed. It seems, that "link" is another frontend to the "ip
interfaces" ?! I installed ifconfig as described in BLFS.
But I should proceed to my problem: pinging is not possible. Everything
is fine but no ping-answer:
PING 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from quorty-lfs (192.168.1.5): Destination Host Unreachable
Vr HL TOS Len ID Flg off TTL Pro cks Src Dst Data
4 5 c0 7000 3074 0 0000 40 01 4282 192.168.1.5 192.168.1.5
So, what's wrong? Here is ifconfig's output:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:50:BA:D5:73:E9
inet addr:192.168.1.5 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

TX packets:11 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0

Here is "route -n"
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use
Iface

eth0
0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0
eth0
So, I installed tcpdump. Here is tcpdump's output:
10:42:36.671360 arp who-has 192.168.1.1 tell quorty-lfs
[only-this-message-a-million-times]
Maybe, the address is not existing? But I'm sure, it exists (it's my
internet-gw). From my good working debian system on the same computer,
ping looks like that:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ping 192.168.1.1
PING 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1) 56(84) bytes of data.

rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.743/1.031/1.319/0.288 ms
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$
Another strange thing is, that the light on the switch is not blinking,
while pinging.
Any hints how I could track down the error?
Greetings
Kim
