Ok, this goes a little bit beyond this list, but I'm hoping someone
on here has a similar setup and can tell me what the heck am I supposed
to do here. See, I decided to bite the bullet and get DSL. Got the
mode/router and all, and now I'm trying to figure out exactly how this
thing is supposed to be setup, specially since neither US/Qwest nor my
ISP deal with linux machines (!!!).
Anyways, the router is a Cisco 675 (you can find everything about on
Cisco's website). The DSL link itself is up. You can ping/telnet to
205.240.12.217 just fine (don't worry, you won't get passed the [two]
password prompt[s] - unless you plan on hacking into the router).
The router also has an ethernet port, which has been configured as
192.168.1.1, netmask of 255.255.255.0. I've linked that ethernet port
to eth1 on my linux box. The question I have now is, how the heck to
configure eth1 on the linux box so that it can see the net. Everything
I tried, nothing seemed to work, nada. (eth1, not eth0 - eth0 is
(eventually) going to the masq DEV for the other machines)
The first thing I tried was to enable the DHCP server on the router,
and let it delegate IPs. Well, when I tell eth1 to go hunt for its IP
(through /sbin/pump), it just sits there for a while, and eventually
quits, telling me it failed. Network activity on the router does spike
whenever I do that. So maybe it doesn't like the DHCP server on the
router. So, I turned it off and tried to manually configure eth1 for IP
192.168.1.2, and setting the gw to .1 (the router's eth0)...no luck
there either.
So, I'm at at loss here.
