When LAN connected, I get my IP address by issuing a pump command.
Well, pump is no longer there. I'm not sure what happened to it.
root@Probot:# pump -i eth0
-su: pump: command not found
Should I download pump and reinstall it?
Should I install a deb package or a tar file?
Never done a deb package by hand, what is the best way to install?
thanks

Hi JockVSJock,
Which KNOPPIX and what instalation are you using?
To find pump type:
which pump
It should return:
/sbin/pump
Try to enter the full path,
/sbin/pump
Still not there?
Perhaps ifconfig will help.
Hope this helps until someone who really knows come along. :wink:

the other option is
dhclient

ifconfig gives you the status of your connection, I can't eve get a connection.
Nice try...

Greetings JockVSJock,
What version and what instalation of KNOPPIX are you using?
How does it work if you boot form the CD?
What kind of a internet connection -- fixed address?
If which pump does not return anything then some
system files must be gone. Reinstalling may get you
going the fastest -- providid all had been working well before.
Then the trick is -- just not do again what you did just before
it stopped working. :?
I set my fixed internet with ifconfig
sudo ifconfig eth0 XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX. net mask 225.225.224.0
sudo route add default gw XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
the I edit /etc/reslov.conf and have one line
nameserver XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
Of course you need real numbes for the XXX bits :wink:
For DHCP have you tried?
sudo netcardconfig
Best Wishes

I used the following command, which worked:
dhcpd eth0
This got me a connection.
I really don't understand dhcpd and why my pump disappeared. Any more info would be awesome!
thanks

I spent ages on this and found two very usefull commands, netcardconfig and wlcardconfig. These will set up everything you need for both LAN cards and Wireless Lan cards.
