Hello everybody, I have troubles with my network.
I'm dedicating an old machine to be a router/firewall. It's a p75 with 3 network cards: - eth0, PCI (eepro100) -> external interface - eth1, ISA (ne) -> LAN - eth2, ISA (3c509) -> DMZ I put this into my /etc/network/interfaces for eth0: auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.1.1 network 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.1.255 gateway 192.168.1.254 (this is the IP of my DSL modem/router) I can't ping the gateway with eth0 nor with eth2, but the same config works with eth1. I'm sure that the network cards work properly, as I installed woody by the network using eth0 trought DHCP. I can't see where is the problem. Two little things whom I don't know if they link to my problem : - ifconfig eth0 gives me this line: UP BROADCAST MULTICAST : there's not "RUNNING" - cat /proc/pci shows me this: 5: 1 XT-PIC NE2000 9: 4021 XT-PIC eth0 10: 0 XT-PIC eth2 I don't know if there is a links, but i have the name of the driver instead of eth1, and eth1 is the only interface which works... Some ideas ? Thanks in advance, Pierre. PS: Please excuse my poor english...
