You are probably running a routing daemon, such as routed.
If you don't need it (and it looks like you don't), turn it off.
Comment it out in /etc/init.d/netstd_init.
BTW, it's turned off by default ..

unstable networking

1998-06-26 Thread Jieyao
Hi,

I wonder if anyone experiences the following.

The system reboots ok. ifconfig and route are runand network set up. If you put 
a line in the boot up file with the command 'ifconfig' and 'route' it shows 
that 
eth0 is up and the routing is set up. 
But when you log in, the route is lost. If you run the command 'route' it will 
stuck there as if looking forever for something that is not there.
If I run 'ifconfig eth0 down' and then the file /etc/init.d/network everything 
is back 
to normal.

BTW, I don't think it got anything to do with logging in, I just need to log in 
to 
see things and run commands. 

What could be wrong?

How do you know the route is lost?  Typing `route' will result in a
slew of DNS lookups - that could be your delay.  Try `route -n'.
(`netstat -rn' does the same thing and has the added benefit of being in
a user's default path :)

If `route -n' doesn't show anything, then yes, you've got a problem.

BTW, your emailer tries to use unusally long lines.

Well I I don't know for sure. What I know is before I do anything, it takes 
forever 
to find the route. But if I rerun the network setup, route pops up immediate.
And not only that, external network can't reach it until I rerun the network 
setup.

 If `route -n' doesn't show anything, then yes, you've got a problem.

I think I do... any idea what I can do?

Meaning?? Lines are not warped?
