Etch was installed yesterday via netinst. Network appeared to configure properly - software installation from mirror went without a problem
The problem (sort of) goes like this: I can boot the machine, and ping any nodes on my network. I can ftp to another machine. Before long, I loose my network connection - such as, open a ftp connection, upload something to another machine (put), and when the ftp connection is closed, I lose the network. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Now when I attempt to ping anything outside of this box, such as on my local network, I get a "Destination Host Unreachable" error. _or_ `ping' hangs and has to be aborted. I can ping loopback by name and by address, and I can ping the machine by its assigned I.P. address and by name. resolv.conf shows the configuration as I put it in yesterday, for search and dns servers. interfaces reads as follows - less the auto comments, plus some comments that exist only in this email: ## --------------------------------------------------------------- auto lo iface lo inet loopback allow-hotplug eth0 iface etho inet static address 192.168.1.3 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 192.168.1.0 ## auto-generated broadcast 192.168.1.255 ## auto-generated gateway 191.168.1.1 dns-nameservers 12.6.42.1 12.6.42.2 dns-search johnson.com ## -------------------------------------------------------------- Any and all help appreciated. dmesg dump can be seen at http://www.johnsons-web.com/demo/debian/dmesg.txt -- Tim Johnson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Palmer, Alaska, USA -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
