Hi there.
I run a testinstall of debian-edu (as homenetwork for my family)
I'm used to the debian installer, so no problems with expert-install.
But although I configured my network to 192.168.1.* it comes up with:
eth0 as 10.0.0.2 and
eth1 as 192.168.0.* (which is i.O, because it's for the clients, if I'm
right)
So I edited the /etc/network/interfaces to my subnet, to be able to
upgrade and install things over the net.
But nevertheless which packagemanager I use (adept, aptitude) I get
webcache errore like this:
"webcache failed on 10.0.0.2:3184"
there's a bug (1054) mentioned in bugzilla, but it only says it will do
no harm (well no install, no upgrade is harm to me)
any hints?
hint: If you dont want to read the docs.
Guilty!
don't change the default values.
and don't let the installer be able to run the network config, which
then is changed to default without a note.
It does not allow you to run the network config unless you boot with the
expert mode. Experts know what they want so they are allowed to shoot
themself in the foot if they want to :)
Generally the network config in the installer is used to get net access
if you do a network install. And then later move the host into the
10.0.2.0/23 nerwork where it belongs.
debian-edu is made for schools with an admin with less then 4h a week
for it administration. Changing the ip configuration is a large task.
it's usualy easier to change the ip of the router, then to change the
network ip config.
Only if you don't have a network running (with 'the-other-OS'), which
depends on the routers IP.
Which -I guess- is often the case.
the other os's integrate with debian edu, and get ip address
automaticaly from the dhcp server on the debian-edu main server, and if
you have the router on 10.0.2.1/23 it will "just work".
If you Must keep a old network while also running a Debian-Edu net, your
choises are to either route between the networks (what i do) or renumber
using the info in the urls from the previous mail.
Keep in mind that if you have a dhcp server on the router you mention,
and you put a mainserver in the same network, things will not work as
expected. You should generally only run the dhcp server on the Debian
Edu main server.
documentation:
http://wiki.skolelinux.no/DebianEdu/Documentation/Etch/
Especialy the requirements and gettingstarted are worth reading.
if you insist on changing the ip subnet, read:
http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/HowTo/ChangeIpSubnet
Thanks for that
No problem. hope you find what your looking for :)
