Reactions to couple of tests please
« on: March 27, 2002, 12:08:02 PM »
I'm yet unable to connect to the internet using a cable modem with a static ip. I have checked some things I found going through older topics and I saw some strange things. I hope you can clearify this.

setup:
eth0 is a 3com 3c905c
eth1 is a 3com 3c590x

check1.
ping the outside world to my isp's gateway and www.yahoo.com worked fine. I have connection.

check2.
when I looked in /ect/modules.conf is saw:
alias eth0 3c59x (ok)
alias eth1 3c90x (ok)
alias eth2 3c59x (NOT OK!), where does this come from. I don't have a third nic in the machine. Can I throw this out without problems?

test3.
when I do /sbin/lsmod it says:
module  size     used by
3c90x    22240  2
so, the 3c90x is loaded twice and no sign of the 3c59x

Can someone explain this please? Thanks.
