rtls0 works

im back. i was just looking through my dev dir and found rtls and rtls0. rtls had nothing in it but rtls0 shows my network card when i plumb it. when i disconnect my cable the data in rtls0 goes away. when it was up and i did a ifconfig -a it showed rtls0 and the loopback. also, my machine isnt directly connected to the internet. i have a router. i forgot what i did but it said something about hop 000/8 - something route not directly connected, so im thinkin i need to configure it with my router.

1. So can you now ping locally?

2. /etc/defaultrouter

i cant ping locally. it it gives me icmp host unreachable from gateway. there is no defaultrouter file in etc so i created one and put my routers ip address in there (192.168.1.1). there already is a default file in etc though. i dont know if that would be it?

I think you will find that is a directory.

Type "route get default" to see if the router setting has been taken, did you reboot since you set it?

router setting was not taken. i ran route get default and it said it cant find it.

Simplest options :

(a) do
Code:
route set default `echo /etc/defaultrouter`

(b) reboot and confirm if it is persistent

(c) do sys-unconfig and reconfigure using the dialogs
