Hi

I tried to install lunar (first 1.51 then 1.6.0) yesterday but could not get the network to run. The driver is correct since I can ping my gateway but it would not leave the local network - neither pinging a www address, nor an IP directly worked - it looks like something with the settings for the domain is not quite wright. Can someone please suggest possible entries for a working setup - thankxs.

Be sure to set a default gateway (if you're not using DHCP):

route add default gw <your gateway to the internet> <device which accesses the network>

Suitable example:

route add default gw 192.168.0.1 eth0

... where 192.168.0.1 is your default gateway and eth0 your ethernet card that connects you to your network.

Regards,

Moritz

the gateway is ok - I can see it from the box - it's just the world outside the gateway that remains hidden
