hello people, I'm using debian potato 2.2r5 on compaq proliant server with kernel 2.4.19 compiled by hand. all runs fine until i added a second ethernet controller to address 2 different networks. both controllers are Intel 100 Mb ( eepro100 as a module)
the 2 controllers are found by the kernel. eth0 already existent and the new as eth1. my /etc/network/interfaces looks like : iface eth0 inet static address 192.202.193.135 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 192.202.193.0 broadcast 192.202.193.255 gateway 192.202.193.1 iface eth1 inet static address 11.199.194.165 netmask 255.255.255.224 network 11.199.194.160 broadcast 11.199.194.192 gateway 11.199.194.161 my route table looks like : root@myhost: route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 11.199.194.160 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.224 U 0 0 0 eth1 192.202.193.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 0.0.0.0 192.202.193.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 0.0.0.0 11.199.194.161 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth1 as we can see there a now 2 default gateways. Now the problem: When i run /etc/init.d/networking restart the config is updated and interfaces reconfigured correctly but they stop responding ( i mean interface eth0 receives traffic but nothing goes outside) i did somme tests with tcpdump. i think is cause of there are 2 def gateways and the kernel don't know on which one he must respond !? ifaces are setted 100 Mb/FDX and switch is in autonegociate mode. What i need is the 2 infaces working and to address the 2 differents networks with the right gateway. Any idea ? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
