[00:18]<brrcgdrg>DHCPACK from 213.66.208.1
[00:18]<brrcgdrg>bound to 213.66.208.65 -- renewal in 600 seconds.
[00:19]<svzzpdsxd>ok, so you get a dhcprequest and dhcpack
[00:19]<svzzpdsxd>what if you do an ifdown and ifup and then a dhclient?
[00:19]<brrcgdrg>ifdown eth0 just says not configurated, ifup will probably do nothing.
[00:19]<brrcgdrg>dhclient will give dhrequest
[00:20]<svzzpdsxd>its the other way round
[00:20]<svzzpdsxd>if eth0 is configured ifup will do nothing
[00:20]<svzzpdsxd>if its not configured it will try to configure itself
[00:20]<brrcgdrg>well, it saids its not configurated, but cant configure it
[00:20]<svzzpdsxd>release the address and then redo the dhclient
[00:22]<svzzpdsxd>dhclient -r
[00:22]<brrcgdrg>aha, is that release?
[00:22]<brrcgdrg>so I do dhclient -r eth0;ifup -a
[00:25]<brrcgdrg>how do I release an ip in linux? I mean like ipconfig /release in windows
[00:26]<svzzpdsxd>dhclient -r
[00:26]<brrcgdrg>okey, I'll try that then
[00:26]<brrcgdrg>don't work. It wont take the -r argument
[00:26]<brrcgdrg>Usage: dhclient [-c] [-d] [-e] [-p <port>] [-lf lease-file]
[00:26]<brrcgdrg> [-pf pidfile] [interface]
[00:28]<brrcgdrg>oh crap what Im getting tired of this...
[00:29]<svzzpdsxd>the old dhclient may not have the -r option
[00:29]<svzzpdsxd>weird
[00:30]<svzzpdsxd>try ifconfig eth0 down
[00:31]<brrcgdrg>and then ifup
[00:31]<brrcgdrg>(I will lose the internetconnection when I do ifconfig down)
[00:31]<svzzpdsxd>yes
[00:32]<brrcgdrg>okey, see you in a few minutes
[00:32]<brrcgdrg>Still here?
[00:34]<brrcgdrg>starfishy: could it matter that when I first installed debian it used eth1 as external IF, and when I rebooted it changed to eth0?
[00:34]<brrcgdrg>Cause I think my isp lockes on MAC-address for 20 lease time
[00:34]<svzzpdsxd>but then the dhclient wouldnt work either
[00:35]<brrcgdrg>or, the MAC-address are still the same
[00:35]<brrcgdrg>cause its just the description that have change
[00:35]<brrcgdrg>d
[00:36]<svzzpdsxd>i had the same problem a couple of times that different kernels would probe the interfaces in different order
[00:36]<svzzpdsxd>if its the same interface the mac address is the same
[00:36]<brrcgdrg>yes, I haven't switched any cables
[00:38]<svzzpdsxd>ok, then its not the MAC address
[00:38]<brrcgdrg>nope
[00:39]<svzzpdsxd>the configuration in /etc/network/interfaces is ok also
[00:39]<svzzpdsxd>so ...
[00:39]<svzzpdsxd>back to square one
[00:39]<brrcgdrg>:)
[00:39]<svzzpdsxd>comment the eth0 statement in /etc/network/interfaces out
[00:39]<svzzpdsxd>so the interface wont come up on reboot
[00:39]<svzzpdsxd>reboot
[00:39]<svzzpdsxd>capture the sequence from manual ifup eth0
[00:39]<svzzpdsxd>reboot
[00:40]<svzzpdsxd>capture the sequence from dhclient
[00:40]<svzzpdsxd>compare the twain
[00:40]<brrcgdrg>shall I remove eht0 from auto-line too?
[00:40]<svzzpdsxd>yeah
[00:40]<svzzpdsxd>actually you need the iface line
[00:40]<svzzpdsxd>so just remove the auto eth0
[00:41]<brrcgdrg>okey, so remove auto, reboot, ifup eth0, copy, save, reboot, dhclient eth0, copy, save, compare
[00:42]<brrcgdrg>I'll be back in a while
[00:51]<brrcgdrg>starfishy: Hi!
[00:51]<brrcgdrg>well, same as before
[00:52]<brrcgdrg>starfishy: it runs request, but it saids renewall in 600 seconds. So I guess I could turn off for 10-15 min and then see whats happen
[00:54]<brrcgdrg>I'll do that, have to go to the bathroom anyway :) I'll see you in 15 min
[00:55]<brrcgdrg>And if we don't, thanks a lot for your time you have spent on helping me, even though we haven't come very far :( Really many thanks!
[01:22]<brrcgdrg>starfishy: Hello again!
[01:22]<svzzpdsxd>hi
[01:22]<svzzpdsxd>did you find something new?
[01:22]<brrcgdrg>starfishy: Now it works, it must somehow have been a lock on wrong MAC or something
[01:23]<brrcgdrg>cause now I think my isp have let go of it and "right NIC" have the ip now
[01:23]<brrcgdrg>so now it works, it loads at boot and my firewall can load after that too :)
[01:23]<svzzpdsxd>cool
[01:23]<brrcgdrg>Thanks alot for your time
[01:23]<svzzpdsxd>congrats
[01:23]<brrcgdrg>!
[01:23]<brrcgdrg>thank you
[01:23]<svzzpdsxd>you are welcome
[01:23]<brrcgdrg>Now I can finally get some sleep :)
[01:24]<svzzpdsxd>have a good night
[01:24]<svzzpdsxd>and have fun with Debian
[01:24]<brrcgdrg>Will do ;)
[01:24]<brrcgdrg>Once more, thanks for your help and have a good day/afternoon
