wwpusa : 04/02/03 01:39 AM : Incident created -   I installed Mandrake 9.1 beta, everything went great. I forgot to install C compilers so I did a re-install. Now I have no internet connection. I can still see the other puters on my home network but, no internet? Help please?!
Linegod_7611 : 04/02/03 06:56 AM : Reply received -   Try reconfiguring your network connection, you may have left out your gateway. Then try disabling the firwall. If that doesn't work, give the output of: # ifconfig # cat /etc/sysconfig/network And as a side note, you did not have to reinstall, you can simply run 'K/Configuration/Mandrake Control Center/Software Manager/RPMDrake' and install any software, at any time. -------- Note: If this answer resolves your problem, please remember to close this incident.
