2007-11-16 Thread Isiak Solih Sadik
Thank you all.
I actually installed the vyatta router on my PC.I did checked the linux shell 
and I confirmed that my router running config was there.
I may be missing something out on vyatta 3 because I never encounter such 
problem with vyatta 1.0.3 version.I encountered silmilar problem with vyatta 
vc2. But no such problem with vyatta version 1.0.3 And that is the reason I 
keep on with vyatta 1.0.3.
I think the vyatta technical team should work on this issue.Probably config 
directory should be left on route directory like in the vyatta version 1.0.3

[Vyatta-users] can't find my running config

Pls Help!
I installed vyatta router 3 on my pc and it worked parfectly.I actually saved 
the running config on the default file opt/vyatta/etc/config/config.boot.but 
when I reboot my vyatta can't route anything.I found out that my saved running 
config is no longer in opt/vyatta/etc/config/config.boot
What can I do.

[Vyatta-users] save to boot

2007-11-12 Thread Isiak Solih Sadik
I'm having problem with my vyatta .How can I save my vyatta router running 
configuration so that the machine will bot from it when reboot.
I have follow the vyatta quick guide to use the default 'save' so that the file 
will be saved in /opt/vyatta/etc/config/config.boot.  After i had saved the 
running configuration I checked the /opt/vyatta/etc/config/config.boot. and the 
running config. content was found.After I reboot the machine the router can't 
route any packet.I discovered that my running config content can't be found in 
/opt/vyatta/etc/config/config.boot

Is it because the file is in opt/ main directory? Or what is the problem.
