I have recently taken over for another system admin on a project and am in the process of figuring out what we have on our servers before rebuilding things the way they need to be. I have one Dell server running Fedora Core 8. I am unable to connect to the network at all.
I am plugged into a known good port, I have tried dhcp and manual set IP configurations. The dhcp will not receive a lease. After both methods I am not even able to ping my gateway. I have diabled all the firewalls to make sure those are not the issue. Here is my ifconfig.
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1C:23:E2:FC:56
UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MYU: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 txqueuelen:1000
RX bytes:0 (0.0b) TX bytes:0 (0.0b)
Interrupt:16
This is configured with dhcp just after doing a dhclient eth0 and it returns no working leases.
What else should I check?
ethtool eth0
say?
