Hi,
I have Fedora 9 installed and updated some time ago. I once booted it
up without the network cable installed and not networking is not
functioning properly. Ping works but DNS and HTTP do not.
Anyone know whats wrong ?
Otherwise I will have to reinstall fom scratch !
Many thanks in advance,
Aaron

Hi Aaron,
have you checked iptables? did you ping a domain name or just ip's?
have you tried lynx and/or firefox for http?
Hi Patrick,
I tried FF to start with, no joy.
Then logged in as root and tried '/sbin/service network restart', that
all looked okay.
Then ping'ed 192.168.0.1, that was okay.
Then tried 'nsloookup www.google.com'
and 'whois www.google.com'
Both failed.
I am getting a 'network' symbol up on the top right of gnome next to my
name with a red and white cross.
Clicking on it gives me a grayed out "Wired Network" option.
Firewall rules look okay as far as I can tell.
Thanks,
Aaron
The cross icon indicates you have no network connection. The Greyed out
"Wired Network" sounds like it is the header text in the NetworkManager
application. What do you see if you right click on that icon? Is there a
check mark beside the entry labled "Enable Networking"?
Okay "Enable Networking" is ticked !
Okay I have done "Edit Connections" and added a connection, typing in eth0's
MAC address and its now working fine.
Thanks alot, I did not think to right click on the icon !
Aaron
