I seem to have screwed up my setup playing with PPP. Welsh's Install
Guide got me going when I was running Slackware but the setup is
different under Debian, or maybe Linux has changed during that time.
I've read the NAG doc and NET-3 HOWTo, ifconfig and route manpages
but something is still screwy.
My hostname is emma and I get a uucp feed from panam.wimsey.com so my
address is [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
This is my startup as I understand it:
/etc/init.d/boot runs /etc/init.d/network which contains the lines
ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1
route add -net 127.0.0.0 dev lo
# cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 emma localhost
# cat /etc/resolv.conf
domain panam.wimsey.com
# cat /etc/networks
localnet 127.0.0.0
# route
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
localnet * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 1 lo
# ifconfig
lo Link encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Bcast:127.255.255.255 Mask:255.0.0.0
UP BROADCAST LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:3584 Metric:1
Does that all seem correct? I can telnet/ftp to emma, localhost,
127.0.0.1 (and 127.0.0.0?) through loopback ok but I'm having some
Tin problems that I think are related.
Thanks.
Rick
