unable to setup network,urgent help needed!!
Hi all,
I just bought a new system, but am unable to configure network on it..
am using a nge0 ethernet interface to login.
i've tried all i knew but not of the webpages seem to open.
Here is what i've done..
ifconfig nge0 plumb
ifconfig -a
(nge0) was being displayed as up and running.
opened network settings
$ network-admin
the hostname was already set.
I had to set the domain name, didnt exactly know what to give here, but as of now ive give airetelbroadband.in (airtel is my ISP).
(would like to know if it is necessary??)
then set the connection to take DHCP.
thats it.
the set my hostname in /etc/nodename
touch /etc/dhcp.nge0
but when i reboot i still cannot connect to the net!!!
Its a little urgent because this is the only OS i have right now!!
pls assist!!
Thanks
