[App_rpt-users] Finding older version of ACID

[Doug Crompton]

The usual practice is to set your nameserver, /etc/resolv.conf to the lan address of your router which would be the same as your gateway address.

Without DNS you can’t reach anything by host name. So you wouldn’t be able to ping google.com, for example. On the other hand you should be able to ping your router, 192.168.1.1 for example, or anything else you know the IP address for.

Subject: Re: [App_rpt-users] Finding older version of ACID I also use ‘setup’ to set a static IP address. But setup hammers /etc/resolv.conf so I just go edit i.e. manually. Should look like so for google dns, use others if you prefer: nameserver 8.8.8.8nameserver 8.8.4.4--

After the ACID load is complete, using a DHCP router, I run "setup" from the
command prompt, and configure it manually, IP, netmask, gateway, and DSN.
When I do this on a WinXp machine in the TC/IP window, connects directly to
the public (static) IP just fine. When I do it on the Linux box with ACID,
eth0 can't find the connection.
Bob, what you are doing seems correct.  I tend to manually edit files, but there is nothing wrong doing it from 'setup'.  Bottom line, there is nothing in ACID that prevents this from working.  I think you probably just have some field wrong somewhere.

I would approach it bottom up - try pinging the from the AllStar computer to the gateway using IP addresses, then using a symbolic name to test NDS, and work your way up.  I bet you will find some subtle misconfiguraton somewhere is causing the problem.
