I upgraded the system but I'm not out of the woods yet: networking works only partly.
I followed the instructions in the release notes: http://www.us.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/release-notes/ch-upgrading.en.html -> aptitude update -> aptitude upgrade -> aptitude install initrd-tools -> aptitude install linux-image-2.6-686 I rebooted the machine and the system came back up again -> aptitude dist-upgrade -> aptitude update everything was ok so I rebooted again. System seemed to be up again. Up to this point I was logged in directly on the machine but then I went back to my desk and logged in remotely. Problem: no connection to the internet. moria:~# ping debian.org ping: unknown host debian.org The server has 2 NICs, 1 connected to the router, one connected to the LAN, and both are static. The one to the LAN is ok as I can login remotely. They seem both to be setup correctly: moria:~# cat /etc/network/interfaces # /etc/network/interfaces -- configuration file for ifup(8), ifdown(8) # The loopback interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback # LAN auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.1.113 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.1.3 #Internet auto eth1 iface eth1 inet static address 192.168.254.3 netmask 255.255.255.240 gateway 192.168.254.1 Manually calling /etc/init.d/networking restart didn't work either. Some more things I can check? Thanks, Nick. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
