Hi, on my main work machine I have a fresh install of Suse 10 with no connection to the network. I can ping localhost and 127.0.0.1 but not to the router - which is reachable from another machine.
I have set (in yast) the network card to obtain an address via dhcp and set the default gateway to be the router (10.1.1.1). I have turned off the firewall. Restarting the network gives: eth0 (DHCP) . . . . no IP address yet.... backgrounding And still can not ping beyond localhost. ping 10.1.1.1 gives "network is unreachable". "/var/log/messages | grep eth0" shows numerous lines of "no IPv6 routers present" and 2 instances of "no link during initialisation" and "link up". What should I look for now? Cheers, Roger
