I try to download something from nvidia
on a remote server via ssh. Iran is banned by the nvidia
website. When I check the server dns
, that is:
IP4.DNS[1]: 192.168.20.14
IP4.DNS[2]: 8.8.8.8
I know if I could set the dns to google dns (8.8.4.4 or 8.8.8.8) then I was able to surf the website and download from it. I tried to change the dns on the server but whatever I do it's the same as above.
Its the content of /etc/network/interfaces
uto lo
iface lo inet loopback
#auto enth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 172.16.143.8
netmask 255.255.255.224
gateway 172.16.143.1
dns-nameservers 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4
This is the output of ifconfig
eno1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 34:97:f6:dc:9f:ff

I wonder why network id is eno1
?! it's the output of sudo nmcli c
NAME UUID TYPE DEVICE
Wired connection 1 532cfa3a-d61b-4bc4-b516-1dc31a5baead 802-3-ethernet eno1
Once I changed eth0
to eno1
but then I couldn't access the server until the file was set back to eth0
I also installed resolvconf
and followed instruction of this website
https://www.tecmint.com/set-permanent-dns-nameservers-in-ubuntu-debian/
the content of /etc/resolv.conf
is preserved but the dns doesn't change
Yet, I might be able to use the secondary dns to connect a website (using wget
or other solutions)
Is it possible, what could I do?
eno1
, noteth0
. You can fix theinterfaces
file. But more is needed. Please post the output ofsudo nmcli c
.
