new to list / network eth0 issue

[Tobias Speckbacher]

The gateway should be added either to your /etc/sysconfig/network file
or the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethx.cfg file

 

The format for this is:

 

GATEWAY=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

Did you add a route to the network?  your Routing table needs to know
where to go.

 

route add -net 0.0.0.0 gw GATEWAYIP netmask 255.255.255.0
INTERFACE_ALIAS (eth0)

 

You can add it to the /etc/rc.local to preserve on reboot.

	--thanks all. 

	--both mii-tool and ethtool are on RHEL v. 3 - they both look 
	--great; i have made the change, but i still can not reach 
	--the server.  i think the IS team has made an error  - it 
	--may be the switch, but that just seems silly - 

	--i'm beginning to think it's either windows 200x or just 
	--add the 2nd card and route my way around it. 

	--will work on it - thanks again! 

	-X

	not sure if the same applies on RHEL but in RH9, 
	just run 'ethtool' as root - dead simple to use. 

	HTH
