Re: Loss of connectivity on recent testing updates



Hmmm ... apparently not:

sudo ifconfig
lo        Link encap:Local Loopback 
          inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0
          inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host
          UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:16436  Metric:1
          RX packets:11601 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:11601 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
          RX bytes:1234607 (1.1 MiB)  TX bytes:1234607 (1.1 MiB)


How do I turn this on, and ensure that it stays on at boot up?

Also, is this likely to have had an impact on my ability to print via CUPS?

Cheers

AG

PS: I connect via ADSL

Hey list

Sometime over the last 9 days I have updated my testing desktop system and when I went to reboot the theme settings on Gnome had changed and I am unable to access the Internet.

My partner's machine - from which this is sent - can access the Net fine.  I could until I rebooted.  I've created a second account and that user cannot access the Net either.

Help!!  I really have no clue what brought this about nor how to fix it.  I've stopped the Firestarter firewall, and restarted it; ditto with Tor and Polipo.  No change.

Did you make sure the interface was up? As root, ifconfig or sudo ifconfig or su -c ifconfig ....
