Re: how to configure the networks card in RedHat
Hi, Montefin:
After run netstat -rn: I get the following
information:
kernel IP routing table:
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Mss Windows
127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 o
irtt Iface
0 lo
My netrorks card is D-link, but when i install it I
use NE2000 compatible to configure it and it works.
>From the above information, it seems that I don't give
the correct gateway, right? But I have check the
"network" at /etc/sysconfig/ I can find the gateway
exist there.
Any Suggestion?
Thanks a lot!
