[Solved] Box with a new MAC address can't connect to the internet
Hi,
i replaced one of my UNIX machines last week, the old box had an external IP address before. Everything is the same as the previous box and the only difference is the new one has a different MAC address (of course, since the mother boards are different). The problem is the new machine can't get on the internet and I was wondering if I someone could help me with that.
I checked the firewall rule on the main firewall machine but it doesn't have anything listed about that old box and its IP address. The box doesn't have a private address (192.x.x.x) and I'm not sure if/where the IT company which installed that for me long ago had the previous MAC address added somewhere.
I assigned the same IP to this new box, so I assume everything should work but it cannot connect to the internet.
Can someone please help me with this?
thanks

glutbuttonboxfunc
glutButtonBoxFunc(3GLUT) GLUT glutButtonBoxFunc(3GLUT)
NAME
glutButtonBoxFunc - sets the dial & button box button callback for the current window.
SYNTAX
void glutButtonBoxFunc(void (*func)(int button, int state));
ARGUMENTS
func The new button box callback function.
DESCRIPTION
glutButtonBoxFunc sets the dial & button box button callback for the current window. The dial & button box button callback for a window is
called when the window has dial & button box input focus (normally, when the mouse is in the window) and the user generates dial & button
box button presses. The button parameter will be the button number (starting at one). The number of available dial & button box buttons can
be determined with glutDeviceGet(GLUT_NUM_BUTTON_BOX_BUTTONS). The state is either GLUT_UP or GLUT_DOWN indicating whether the callback was
due to a release or press respectively.
Registering a dial & button box button callback when a dial & button box device is not available is ineffectual and not an error. In this
case, no dial & button box button callbacks will be generated.
Passing NULL to glutButtonBoxFunc disables the generation of dial & button box button callbacks. When a new window is created, no dial &
button box button callback is initially registered.
