A system on my local network (pvr) has its IP address in /etc/hosts
geoff@pvr[1]->cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4
localhost4.localdomain4
192.168.10.2 pvr.mtranch.com pvr
192.168.10.3 mtranch.mtranch.com mtranch
192.168.10.1 Netgear
198.168.20.5 Homerun
Netgear router accessed from pvr via wireless. It has the address
192.168.10.2 reserved and assigned to pvr. Worked fine. Today after
booting up the latest kernel, (3.2.2-1.fc16.i686.PAE), the IP address
has changed to 192.168.10.5:
geoff@pvr[2]->ifconfig wlan0
wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr AE:5D:BA:91:67:2D
inet addr:192.168.10.5 Bcast:192.168.10.255
Mask:255.255.255.0
inet6 addr: fe80::ac5d:baff:fe91:672d/64 Scope:Link
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:484 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:462 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
you'll note that it is 192.168.10.5
Not surprisingly, I can't ssh 192.168.10.2, but I can ssh 192.168.10.5
Question: where is this (dynamic?) assignment taking place?
