Hello debianers!
For some reason I can no longer ping localhost:
ping -c 3 localhost
PING localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
--- localhost.localdomain ping statistics ---
3 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 2000ms
I saw that when I tried to configure my printer using the web
interface:
http://localhost:631/admin
If I use as root: ifconfig lo, I can ping localhost.
But the next time I reboot I cannot ping localhost: I have again to
become root and use ifcong.
So, my question: how do I save the command ifconfig lo in some place
so that I don't have to redo the same procedure? Is there a script or
a config file?
This is the content of my /etc/network/interfaces file:
### etherconf DEBCONF AREA. DO NOT EDIT THIS AREA OR INSERT TEXT
BEFORE IT.
auto lo eth1 eth2
iface lo inet loopback
### END OF DEBCONF AREA. PLACE YOUR EDITS BELOW; THEY WILL BE
PRESERVED.
I'm sure that there should be a trick, but which one? I swear that I
have tried to RTFM!
check to make sure you have :
/etc/init.d/networking
with these files linking to it:
/etc/rc0.d/S35networking
/etc/rc6.d/S35networking
/etc/rcS.d/S40networking
an update-rc networking defaults ,might solve this for you.
also, you might want to check out sysv-rc-conf, its a neat little app to
configure your init scripts.
hth,
