This is more or less the problem:
Now if I configure eth1 with the netcardconfig, networking doesn't work any longer.
So the eth0 link (configured by dhcp works, but when eth1 (static, configured with netcardconfig) comes up , eth0 stops working. This Isn't what it is supposed to do I think.
Oh, than it's a bug, yes. :)
But maybe I can find a solution for your problem for netcardconfig anyway.
The problem has already been solved by commenting out the 'network' and 'broadcast' line.
^^^^^^^^^ I assume you mean gateway here.
Are you sure the network line causes any problems if it's present?
What do you exactly expect from netcardconfig? You want to be able to get something like:
iface eth1 inet static address 192.168.9.253 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255 nameserver 195.58.160.194
instead of:
iface eth1 inet static address 192.168.9.253 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 192.168.9.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255 gateway 192.168.9.1 nameserver 195.58.160.194
?
Exactly, i think this solves the problem (I've suspect the gateway thing to 'steal' the acces to eth0)
Ok. I'll check and make sure that providing empty values for network and gateway is possible by netcardconfig.
BTW i've written a little script to enable routing with iptables, if you want it, drop me a note.
If it might be useful for grml - for sure, just mail it to me.
It's on its way!
Already got it, thanks! Looks promising, I'll check it out in detail with other grml-devs and integrate it in grml-scripts.
