I am running Asterisk@home on one of my systems here. It uses Centos 4.2. It does NOT have a GUI interface. Command line only at console or via SSH (yeah, I know that I was working on another server to get GUI tools working through SSH, but I am NOT going to muck with AAH build).
Now at http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk%40Home+Handbook+Wiki+Chapter+3
I was instructed to use NETCONFIG to setup up my network information. Well it did for eth0, but not for eth1.
So question #1 is how to use netconfig to setup eth1 without
messing with eth0.
don't know - never used it.
try...
cd /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts cp ifcfg-eth0 ifcfg-eth1
and then edit ifcfg-eth1 to your liking
Well I started in on this and look at the two files before any changes:
cat ifcfg-eth0
DEVICE=eth0 ONBOOT=yes BOOTPROTO=static IPADDR=65.84.78.218 NETMASK=255.255.255.248 GATEWAY=65.84.78.217
cat ifcfg-eth1
DEVICE=eth1 HWADDR=00:50:8B:DA:BB:61 ONBOOT=no TYPE=Ethernet
Why does eth1 have HWADDR and TYPE whereas eth0 does not?
Seems I should understand this before making changes!
---- HWADDR not necessary but does sort of 'pin' down which card when the cards use the same kernel module. You can remove the HWADDR entry altogether.
ONBOOT=no #might want to change that
I heavily recommend removing 'GATEWAY' addresses from ifcfg files and putting them directly into /etc/sysconfig/network when you have multiple adaptors. ----
#2) NETCONFIG did not setup my hostname and domain. I had to go in with VI to resolv.conf and sysconfig/network. Is there a tool for this?
simply edit /etc/sysconfig/network
change the hostname to anything you want it to be - suggest that you make sure this entry also exists in /etc/hosts
Also when using 2 eth devices per above, set the gateway address here...
GATEWAYDEV=eth0 # fix for your situation GATEWAY=ip_addr_of_gateway
#3) How do I figure out which board is which. Other than looking at the MAC address and using PCISNIFFER to then relate that to one of the boards (well, one 'builtin'). Also how do I determine which board is using which IRQ.
dmesg|less
or
lspci -vv
Here is the output of that lapci command. You will see that the first ethernet and last Tiger Jet are both on IRQ5.
Is this controlled/controllable via some config file?
---- might be a DOS utility available to switch the settings...depends upon the hardware. I think it is acceptable to share IRQ's on some devices though...we are out of my league now.
