Post #319,288 by folkert 12/29/09 8:10:20 PM Reply	Re: "Destination Host Unreachable" What Linux are you using? anything ubuntu/debian /etc/network/interfaces auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.0.50 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 192.168.0.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255 gateway 192.168.0.1 That is how the static setup should be. Once set, then: `ifdown eth0 ; ifup eth0` Then try and ping the device. Assuming you are plugging into it on a network/LAN port and not the WAN port. Once there... you should be good.

I'd really like to fix this before putting it back in their room so I don't have to do this again, but I think I'm reaching the yak shaving stage (http://sethgodin.typ...t_shave_that.html). I have a solution -- I don't like it, but it works -- and I have real work I need to do. -- Drew

Post #319,345 by folkert 12/30/09 3:18:39 PM Reply	Well yes and yes. Yes, its better to start with your bases covered rather than assuming its what you want. Yes, I've discovered that certain pieces of materials aren't exactly what they are supposedly cracked up to be. BUT... the process only will change at the suppliers side of things. He understand about clean up now. Will let me do the clean up rather than a quick splash with a belt sander. But... it seems family stuff is getting in the way. If you'd answer your phone once in a while, we could talk about what you have to look forward too... :P Well maybe not with your girls. Except the Wedding now being planned has sucked out $1K/month for the past two months and will continue to for the next 9 months (or longer) until its done. Bleah. Call me some time after 5PM eastern.. ok?
