Product: drakconf
Component: drakconf
Summary: Internet configuration lost with two profiles
Version: 9.1-2mdk
Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
PC: Toshiba Satellite 1805-S273 laptop and NetGear MA401 Wireless Network PC Card
I am using the default profile and wireless profile. Since both networks are
dhcp, I attempted to set up both eth0 (internal LAN card) and eth1 (wireless
card) as dhcp. Although, I could ping my router and received a legitimate IP
address from the dhcp server, the DNS did not come through. The card works fine
on the same box when I dual boot into Windows.
The workaround I had to use was to give the machine a static IP address so that
I could enter the gateway and set DNS to the router's IP address (the router is
a Netgear which contains the dhcp server, firewall, and WAP.
The tool doesn't transfer my boot at start settings to the ifcfg files for the
interfaces that it produces. I had to manually tweak these files. The other
issue is that you can't ignore an interface. Typically, I use either the
internal LAN card or the wireless, but not both.
