Ever since a power outage this weekend, I have no
internet access in my Linux box (which is used as a network router). Even local
loopback isn't working. After testing with help from #debian, it seems that
ifconfig is acting up. When I try to ifup -v lo, I get the following:
ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1 up... ifconfig: only one address allowed for interface
'lo'. Same thing happens for eth0 and eth1, but with the gateway and broadcast
lines included as well. After any of these commands, and when I reboot (which
usually cleared any problems) ifconfig lists absolutely nothing, and not even
ping to localhost will work (connect: invalid argument). Anyone have any
ideas? |
