[opensuse] Network connection doesn't work anymore--dhcpcd is still waiting for data
Hi there, my network interface eth0 suddenly does not come up properly anymore (I'm using openSUSE 10.2), even though it continues to work fine when I use a Live CD or Windoze. I am absolutely not an expert on networking stuff. The only thing I realize is that, both during boot time and following a "sudo /sbin/rcnetwork restart" I see that message that "eth0 is controlled by ifplugd............waiting" Status is always "waiting", never "done" The interface is configured via ifup and DHCP is selected (this setup worked until very recently) Any help on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated!

Have you recently update your kernel? On Thursday 02 August 2007 22:16, malzfreund@googlemail.com wrote:

Well, just the regular update to 2.6.18.8-0.5 but it worked after
that. Actually, I don't recall any tweaking on my side the day before
it stopped working..

Simplest first step would be to remove network card information via YaST and then reinstall from scratch. It is possible that the configuration has become corrupted. - -- ============================================================================== I have always wished that my computer would be as easy to use as my telephone.
