Server has ethernet but not internet
I have server, I have tried full static and only static ip for the computer and everything else is handled by dhcp. The problem is the same, no internet.
I can ssh and control mpd on it from my desktop without any problems.
[root@C3PO AUR]# ping vg.no
ping: unknown host vg.no
/etc/rc.conf:
......
interface=eth0
address=192.168.1.10
netmask=
gateway=
What is the problem? It is connected to a gigabit switch is there again connected to an airport express which delivers the ipadresses. My desktop is connected the same way with dhcp.

Re: Server has ethernet but not internet
You need to add a DNS server to /etc/resolv.conf
EDIT: You also need a default gateway, which according to your rc.conf is not currently configured.

Re: Server has ethernet but not internet
How do I find out which DNS servers I need to use?
Isn't gateway handled by dhcp when leaved blank?

Re: Server has ethernet but not internet
Perhaps the entry of the ip in the dhcp example should be removed. Normal dhcp installs via eth0 only have eth0 entered.

Re: Server has ethernet but not internet
Now, after a new try and no sucess:
[root@C3PO ~]# ping vg.no
connect: Network is unreachable
ip adresses:
address=192.168.1.10
netmask=255.255.255.0
gateway=192.168.0.0
broadcast=192.168.0.255
/etc/resolv.conf:
nameserver 192.168.1.1
This is the same config my desktop which I am using now has.
