use the nodhcp kernel option when you boot,
knoppix dma alsa wheelmouse lang=en nodhcp.
That will fix your problem.
Have fun.
Hi,
I want knoppix to boot to a console, then use it for my gateway/firewall/router.
I wrote a little script to configure eth0 and eth1 and start shorewall:
ifconfig eth1 192.168.1.1 up
ifconfig eth0 66.666.66.666 broadcast 66.666.66.255 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
route add -net 66.666.66.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev eth0
route add default gw 66.666.66.1 netmask 0.0.0.0 dev eth0
#set /etc/default/shorewall to "1"
cp /mnt/floppy/shorewall /etc/default/shorewall
mount --bind /mnt/floppy/shore /etc/shorewall
shorewall start
Here's my problem: After a certain amount of time, knoppix decides to look for a DHCP server (which I have) and get an IP address from there for eth1 (local). This, of course, completely ruins it's effectiveness as a router for my LAN.
How do I prevent it from looking for a DHCP server and getting a new local IP address. The external side (eth0) seems to be ok, since I have a static IP from my ISP.
can someone tell me what I'm not doing here?
Thanks,
john

Oh and by the way if you really want to be certain that this doesn't happen ever, just remaster the image but apt-get remove pump before you do.
Enjoy
well, if i had the disk-space (and more importantly the time), I'd remaster it with my samba settings, shorewall configured, network settings, etc all good to go on boot.Originally Posted by ignuu2
i could do a lot of things if i had the time.
thanks for the help. i missed that boot option. or rather didn't think to look there for it.
