USB connection to Cablemodem, cdc_ether, resolvconf?
Hi,
I have connected my Debian GNU/Linux Lenny through USB to my
Cablemodem. My kernel is linux-image-2.6.26-1-686.
I'm trying to setup my eth0 network interface. It should have a static
and public IP address.
I have setup eth0 network interface as static in interfaces file:
[snip..]
auto lo eth0
iface lo inte loopback
iface eth0 inet static
address 217.17.111.164
netmask 255.255.255.0
[..snip]
I have loaded kernel modules for USB-Ethernet card:
lsmod gives me the following:
[snip..]
...
cdc_ether 4672 0
usbnet 14024 1 cdc_ether
...
[..snip]
I run resolvconf to setup nameservers:
# cat file_with_nameservers | resolvconf -a eth0
so after this command abowe I get the file:
/etc/resolvconf/run/interface/eth0
with nameservers.
Still I can't reach the Internet:
ping www.google.com
However after a reboot this file:
/etc/resolvconf/run/interface/eth0
missing.
What am I missing here?
How can I setup Nameservers?
Any advices will be appreciated!
