 |
|
At boot eth0 loads just fine and ifconfig says it is up and running but if I try to ping or connect to internet I can't. But if I do the /sbin/route add -net default ... (etc) it works. Anyone know what the problem is, or even if there is a way to make a script run the /sbin/route add command everytime at boot? Also it doesnt matter if the driver for my NIC is put as a module or built into kernel, same problem.
Thanks |

Is /etc/conf.d/net set up correctly?

Yeah it is setup correctly, here it is for you to look at if you can find anything odd...
| Code: |
# This is basically the ifconfig argument without the ifconfig $iface
#
iface_eth0="172.16.1.10 broadcast 172.16.255.255 netmask 255.255.0.0"
iface_eth1="172.16.1.10 broadcast 172.16.255.255 netmask 255.255.0.0"
# For DHCP set iface_eth? to "dhcp"
# For passing options to dhcpcd use dhcpcd_eth?
#
#iface_eth0="dhcp"
#dhcpcd_eth0="..."
# For adding aliases to a interface
#
#alias_eth0="192.168.0.3 192.168.0.4"
# NB: The next is only used for aliases.
#
# To add a custom netmask/broadcast address to created aliases,
# uncomment and change accordingly. Leave commented to assign
# defaults for that interface.
#
#broadcast_eth0="192.168.0.255 192.168.0.255"
#netmask_eth0="255.255.255.0 255.255.255.0"
# For setting the default gateway
#
gateway="eth0/172.16.0.254"
gateway="eth1/172.16.0.254"

I have eth1 because when I first started gentoo install from live cd it was picking up my onboard lan as eth0, which I dont use. |

Can you try disabling eth1? I don't see how you can have the same IP address on two different interfaces: how would the kernel know which interface to send packets out on?

| Actually I had to have eth1 setup earlier when I first installed because eth0 was set to my onboard lan, which isnt even connected. But for some reason after initial install and reboot eth1 became eth0, so now I don't even load up eth1 at boot, I just have to load eth0. I just tried commenting it out and it doesnt do anything either way, still the same problem. Is there anyway I can have script load up at boot that would just exectute the /sbin/route... command? |

Did you even comment out the extra eth1 gateway line at the bottom? I think that's the one that's causing you problems, because it's saying that packets should go out over eth1.
