Hi,

I ve got a problem.
Well, Windows interface says its possible.
but i just cant manage setting up my internet connection in open suse 12.3 with hyperv.

As good will, i uncheked ipv6 and i'm using dhcp in hyperv and opensuse with no proxy in firefox linux.
I add the defaut gateway in yast 192.168.1.1 etho and save it but it does not show it using /sbin/route command.
Is says network unreachable without my gateway and when i want to add it manually it adds it to lo and not eth0.

Thanks.
Regards.

funny place for linux tech support, but

maybe?

nop

route add default gw 192.168.1.1 etho
results
SIOCADDRT : the network is not reachable.

so basically the first question would be: what is the output of ifconfig?

etho? reminds me of the time when floppy access stopped working for me on amiga CLI, because i was typing dfo:

Try eth0?

etho i mean eth0 psonice

skomp: ifconfig returns: (its in french)

eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:15:5D:F1:BF:05
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 lg file transmission:1000
RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:30438 (29,7 Kb)

lo Link encap:Boucle locale

TX packets:1024 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0

RX bytes:78644 (76.8 kb) TX bytes:78644 (76.8 kB)

eth0 has no ip address.

comes to mind (or whatever ip you want to assign)

theres surely some suse specific config file to initialize the network interfaces at boot time as well.
i know debian has it at /etc/network/interfaces but not sure about suse

the command

ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.254 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255

works

but then the command

route add default gw 192.168.1.1 eth0

still result

SIOCADDRT : the network is not reachable.

in opensuse config file are in /etc/sysconfig/network

especially the file 'ifcfg-eth0'

BOOTPROTO='dhcp'
BROADCAST=''
ETHTOOL_OPTIONS=''
MTU=''
NAME='Virtual Ethernet Card 0'
NETMASK=''
NETWORK=''
REMOTE_IPADDR=''
STARTMODE='auto'
USERCONTROL='no'

there is also the file 'routes' too

well the network 192.168.1.x/24 isnt reachable from the subnet 192.168.0.x/24 which you just configured with the command i gave you (stating you have to change the ip), at least not without a specific route set.
the config file looks like its just set to dhcp, so you need a (properly configured) dhcp server in your network if you wanna keep it that way and hyperv needs to pass through the dhcp traffic as well.

please, get a clue about ip based networking, theres 1000 tutorials for every linux distro on the internets.

ok, it appears there's a bug from hyperv, i'm checking that ifcfg-eth0...

CodeK: i´d like to invite some friend, my best friend indeed, to get known to you, he´s even a visitor of evoke since 2008 and hasn´t missed any event since...he´s in love with linux! [iknowwhoyeareanywaynextevokeimmaconnectyoutwo]

man, it's simple: you have to replace 0 by 1 for the ifconfig stuff:


then the network should be reachable.

fine.

- ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.254 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.1.255
- route add default gw 192.168.1.1 eth0

works

but still there must be the link local address to add manually to surf with linux firefox ?

how to make appears

169.254.0.0/16 dev eth0 scope link

or something else ?

i'm sorry i'm posting that quite fast this time.

ok

- ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.254 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.1.255
- route add default gw 192.168.1.1 eth0

and then

- ping 192.168.1.1

results

from 192.168.1.254 destination host unreachable

any idea ?
