I have just installed NetBSD 1.5 on a gateway motherboard, running a celeron
366, 256MB of RAM, 7GB HDD, 10bT NE2000 compatible ISA NIC, ATI Xpert98 PCI
Graphics card... install seems to go fine... however....
I am having trouble configuring this NIC for the gateway. I have a Linksys 1
port Firewall/Router combo, connected to a Cable Modem on RoadRunner, and a
10bT 3Com hub. I'd like this machine to serve as the old reliable webserver
running Apache. I'm starting from a fresh install... I have read some of the
NetBSD documentation, and *most* of it seems to make sense... but when I try
to ping, I see the network activity light on the hub going, and I get the
msg.
"ping: sendto: No route to host "
My /etc/hosts looks like...
<!--StartFragment--># $NetBSD: hosts,v 1.4 1997/01/09 05:33:14 mikel Exp $
#
# Host Database
# This file should contain the addresses and aliases
# for local hosts that share this file.
# It is used only for "ifconfig" and other operations
# before the nameserver is started.
#
#
127.0.0.1 localhost
192.168.1.100 cs.server csserver
#
# RFC 1918 specifies that these networks are "internal".
# 10.0.0.0 10.255.255.255
# 172.16.0.0 172.31.255.255
# 192.168.0.0 192.168.255.255
#
should I be sending the contents of a different file?
