If I try reboot -r it says:
Or Boot
What should I try ?!
There is a hostname.ge0 and also there is a hostname.eri0 and a /etc/nodename and the ip - hostname in the /etc/hosts.
Is it a problem? I have the same hostname (not the same IP, the eri0 is configured to DHCP) for both interfaces. I can remove the hostname.eri0 and also remove the entry in /etc/hosts to eri0 and remove the nodename, but will it help or the interface should be working beside this?
I am trying to change an IP address on a machine running HPUX10
After I change it I can ping it from the outside but it completely locks the console. After a reboot it returns back to its previous IP. Any ideas??
Thanks

I know that I could use the
#ifconfig hme0 plumb
to activate the network interface.
However, how can I know the name of the interface e.g. hme0 before I could use the ifconfig to plumb it up?
I know there is a command (but I forgot it) to use in the Sparc version when you are in the... (7 Replies)
why the ifconfig command is not working in my machine?
it says "-bash: ifconfig: command not found"
why its says that?
actually i m looking for "how can I know the Network Interface Card physical address?"
Requesting u all for help.

Hello everyone.
Im using last redhat enterprise edition and in my working environment, i'm always reconfiguring both interfaces , eth0 and eth1, everytime i change any interface, (i use ifconfig to change ip, and after i execute "/etc/init.d/network restart") my "/etc/hosts" file... (9 Replies)

Hi All,
I need some info on ifconfig.
ifconfig is available in Linux and Solaris. However the options available in Solaris is not there in Linux.

sppptun
sppptun(1M) System Administration Commands sppptun(1M)NAME
sppptun - PPP tunneling driver utility
SYNOPSIS
sppptun plumb
sppptun plumb protocol device
sppptun unplumb interface
sppptun query
DESCRIPTION
The sppptun utility is used to configure and query the Solaris PPP tunneling device driver, /dev/sppptun. Currently, only PPP over Ether-
net (PPPoE) is supported, so the plumb and unplumb arguments are used to specify Ethernet interfaces that are to be used for PPPoE, and the
query option lists the plumbed interfaces.
The use of sppptun to add interfaces is similar to the use of ifconfig(1M) to add interfaces to IP. The plumbing is done once for each
interface, preferably at system start-up time, and is not normally manipulated on a running system. If multiple instances of PPP are run
over a single interface, they share the plumbing to that interface. Plumbing for each session is not required (and not possible for PPPoE).
The proper way to plumb interfaces for PPPoE is to list the interfaces, one per line, in the /etc/ppp/pppoe.if file.
USAGE
sppptun plumb
When specified with no additional arguments, the plumb argument lists the protocols that are supported by the utility. These are the
strings that are used as the protocol argument below.
sppptun plumb protocol device
This plumbs a new interface into the driver. The protocol parameter is pppoe for the PPP-carrying "Session Stage" connection or pppoed
for the PPPoE "Discovery Stage" connection. Both connections must be present for each Ethernet interface that is to be used for PPPoE.
The device parameter is the path name of the Ethernet interface to use (use ifconfig(1M) to list available devices). If the path begins
with /dev/, then this portion may be omitted.
sppptun unplumb interface
This removes an existing interface from the driver and terminates any PPP sessions that were using the interface. The interface parame-
ter is the name of the interface as reported when the interface was plumbed.
sppptun query
Displays the canonical names of all interfaces plumbed into the /dev/sppptun device driver.
EXAMPLES
Example 1: Setting up to Use PPPoE on hme0
Plumb the hme0 interface.
# sppptun plumb pppoed hme0
hme0:pppoed
# sppptun plumb pppoe hme0
hme0:pppoe
Remove the hme0 interface.
# sppptun unplumb hme0:pppoed
# sppptun unplumb hme0:pppoe
Example 2: Script to Remove All Plumbed Interfaces
#!/bin/sh
for intf in `sppptun query`
do
sppptun unplumb $intf
done
EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned:
0 Successful completion.
1 One or more errors occurred.
FILES
/etc/ppp/pppoe.if list of Ethernet interfaces to be plumbed at boot time
