10/26 On a redhat 6.2 box i can't even ping 127.0.0.1 even though ifconfig
shows that both my interfaces are up and assigned i.p addresses.
What could be wrong?
\_ Muhahahahaha!
\_ D00d you're using redhat. How 'bout some nice BSD?
\_ Where is a 3133T GN00/L1NUX H@X0R5 when you need one?
\_ their network stack is so fucked, they can't login to another
to respond to your pathetic cries for help.
\_ Please don't erase this, dammit. RH6.2 doesn't install inetd by
default. You need to install that rpm to offer any services.-mogul
\_ while this is true, it's not the problem; "ping" is not
a service offered out of inetd. If you can't ping
127.0.0.1, your configuration is wrong, either no lo0 or
routing fucked. -tom
\_ ipf can be used to reject ICMP on all interfaces.
Oh, I forgot that this was 3133T GN00/L1NUX.
\_ I have brought down all interfaces brought back up lo
routing is correct, and i've killed basically every
process. I'm afraid this is a problem with the kernel.
time to reinstall (i feel like i'm using microsoft).
\_ the only possible kernel problem, unless you've
screwed around with it yourself, is lack of support
for your ethernet card. -tom
\_ D00D U R ! 3133T 1F U N33D TH3 R00T P@55WD F0R H15 GN00/L1NUX B0X.
\_ What error does ping give you? Tried ping -n? Post ifconfig
and route output. Or, even better, post the IP and root password
on motd -- I'll fix it. |
