Hi guys, I've got a weird problem with a Suse 7.2 installation. Occasionally it falls off the network - it can't be reached via telnet, SSH, HTTP or ping, but locally it can ping itself. If I type init 6 to bounce it, nothing happens at all and typing other commands does nothing. If I logout of KDE then shutdown, it goes down gracefully then I can restart it, and the network is back. It's a 'straight out the box' install, (only in test at the moment) with Oracle 8.1.7, Apache and PHP4. I haven't tried just doing a /etc/network start yet, it didn't occur to me last time it happened, but if anyone has any ideas......?

Hi, I've had this problem, however the last time it happened it came back after a few minutes. I always thought it was my internet supplier doing werid stuff. The cable modem PC light will go off. Adam On Thu, 20 Dec 2001, Andy Calloway wrote:

My 2 cents:
I had the same exact thing just yesterday (SuSE 7.0 though), it started two
minutes after my ISP went doing boo boo's too. My box was not reachable,
although the port LED on my switch was on, indicating the NIC was active.
Telnetting to it would give me an active channel but no login prompt, not
even after a minute (when DNS fails to see my host)
Taking it to init 6 wouldn't do a thing.
It was a fresh 7.0 installation, only booted it once, it ran two days.
Standard install, no changes made to packages or whatsoever. Just ran YaST
and setup the box with all the defaults.

Hi I have this also with 7.2 and ADSL line. I fixed it by installing the 2.2 kernel (2.2.16?). The problem was, that the dhcp-client did not work together with 2.4 kernel. It died suddenly, and sometimes came back after few minutes. I could bring it to live by "/etc/rc.d/dhclient restart". I was not succesful to repair that, and I'm still running 2.2 kernel. Jaska.
