If "lsmod shows the drivers for both cards", then the drivers are loaded. (Surely that was obvious.)


If the cards work in another system, then they are themselves working. From the log output you provide, they seem to have reasonable IRQs and IO bases assigned ... but you might double check that by looking at /proc/interrupts and /proc/ioports .

I don't know what you intend "etc" to cover so I can't answer that directly. But ...

When you say "specifically, I can't ping the bering box", where are you pinging from and how does the ping fail (pings fail in many different ways, and the differences are informative)? What happens when you try to ping *from* the Bering host *to* whatever system is unable to ping the Bering host? Can the Bering host ping its own interfaces (or at least eth1, since eth0 has no IP address to ping)? After unsuccessful pings, do the RX and TX packet counts change on the relevant interface (check with "ip -s link show")? Do the arp tables on the hosts involved each contain an entry for the other host?

When you say "can't get a dynamic addr", how are you supposed to get one? DHCP? PPPoE? Something else? Does the system try and fail to get an address or never try at all (what do the logs indicate)? Could you be running into a MAC-address authentication problem with your ISP (a common problem with DHCP and cable providers)?

The log output shows neither a DHCP client nor a PPPoE daemon starting before Shorewall. Do you have Shorewall configured correctly to let whichever of these is appropriate to your setting run?

I'm using a 3Com 509 ISA card for eth0, as shown in the syslog:

The cards have worked in other machines. I just can't seem to figure out the
troubleshooting steps for this.
