A few days ago I wrote complaining that my new, cheap Compaq Presario (sr5010nx) could not create and maintain a dsl connection using Centos5. I was puzzled that that Ubuntu - with pppoeconf - would work just fine but Centos5 could not be configured. (cento4 -also) Eventually I googled and found a bug report for the r8169 Gigabit ethernet driver. Conclusion - there is a patch in new kernels

Hello guys, I have two ISP's connected to my router. One via eth2, second one via ADSL modem, with ppoe doing on my Centos 5 . The problem I have is, that when ADSL fails , interface ppp0 is removed. This also removes my static routes configured for this interface. I do not want that, as I have load balancing configured and default route is removed when ppp0 interface disapears. This is my

I need basic PPPoE startup help. adsl-start DID bring up my PPPoE link (ppp0) to my ISP over eth0 via the DSL modem/bridge. My IPv4 CIDR block is routing and Shorewall is doing the firewalling. But shorewall has to be started after ppp0 is up and working. For now this means running shorewall restart (or start?). Shorewall 4.2 will have a way to restart shorewall without recompiling, I

Please point me in the right direction.... My ISP is giving me an IPv6 prefix, but to get that I have to: The current Speedstream ADSL router will be configured as a bridge. I will have to set up a Linux (read Centos, I hope) router that will connect ethernet to the Speedstream but run PPPoE to his network and get both the IPv4 and IPv6 route delegations. There is no easy way that I know of

Under Linux, i can configure my DSL connection with pppoeconf (debian), without configure my Ethernet interface (eth0), just load kernel module fo ethernet interface, launch pppoeconf here is it. Another way is to configure the DSL interface (eth0 -> ALCATEL Speed Touch Home) with IP:10.0.0.1 so i can telnet or access with an web explorer the modem on 10.0.0.138. After i launch pppoeconf and

I've go a Compaq Presario (SR5110NX) that I've loaded CentOS 5 on and all is well except for the sound card. I understand that OSS supports the chipset but it's not being detected an loaded properly and I've invested a significant amount of time already. I've probably got an old supported card lying around here somewhere but I hat to give up on the principal. I would rather

I am attempting to build an IPv4/IPv6 router. I have put a 2nd ethernet card in a box. I have one Ethernet card attached to my network and the other to a switch with nothing else there just so the link comes up for testing. When I have the built-in Ethernet attached to my network, I get pings around 60ms. The other card, btw, does not have any IP addresses configed. When I switch the

I have a Compaq something with a PII-400 and an Intel 440BX/ZX/DX chipset. I put in a Maxtor Ultra133 PCI controller (which is a Promise PDC20269, same as their TX2) and connected the hard drive thereto. Before we go on, I should say that I **hate** both Promise and Compaq. I wouldn't actually BUY this junk. Don't look a gift horse in the mouth, as they say. :) (An old idiom I grew up

I just set up Ubuntu Hardy Heron on my Compaq Presario C712nr laptop, and I was hoping that someone could help me to set up Steam so that it will fully function. I have previously tried this, yet was unable to get the Steam Community working properly with its chat functions and such. This was a real dealbreaker for me, as Steam Community is my primary social networking service. If anyone could
