Mageia forum

Hello everyone.

I just installed MGA4. On my computer I have 3 network cards. eth0 for internet, eth1 for local network and eth2 for dmz.
Apparently all good, but when I run drakgw to share internet with eth1, drakgw not detect any network card for lan.
This message appears:

Code: Select all

                │  No ethernet network adapter configured for LAN has been detected on your system. │
                │                                                                                   │
                │  Please run the hardware configuration tool to configure it, and ensure that the  │
                │  Mageia firewall is not enabled for network adapter connected to your LAN         │
                │  network. 

I disabled the firewall rules. (as the message says), but there is no way that drakgw detect my other network cards.

By the way, I did the same installation and configuration with MGA3 and it worked great.
The only thing different I did was in mga4 renaming of nics I renamed from enp... to eth [0,1,2] to avoid having to change all the scripts that I have.

It may be a bug? or is there something different about the way to configure networks in mga4?

thanks in advance

How did you rename the interfaces? And please show the output of

Code: Select all

netstat -rn

and

Code: Select all

ip a

as root

Hi Doktor5000,

to rename the interfaces I created a link in /etc/udev/rules.d/ for 80-net-name-slot.rules -> /dev/null
Later, I have created a persistent rules for my devices in the same directory. I take the info from http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Softwar ... faceNames/

netstat -rn

HI,
Well I have it all back to how it was before. I thought this was the problem.
Just does not work. Drakgw only detects the network card connected to Internet. Then get the message that there is no card connected to a local network.

Personally I do not care, I can solve it by shell. The problem is that I have several friends that I convinced to use mageia. They only use the graphical mode. Right now they are using MGA3 and are happy, but want to move to mga4.
I told them do not even change. If they have the same problems as me, will be discouraged.

Please someone can help me solve it?

thanks

Then please report that as a bug, after searching if it hasn't been reported yet already: https://wiki.mageia.org/en/How_to_report_a_bug_properly

I have searched this error. I found this problem in the bugs from MGA1.
The strange thing is I never had this problem. But I think the previous times I did mageia installed with one network card. Then I was putting the other cards one by one. I did this to keep the order of the cards.
I'll try this method to see if it manages well.

thanks

For completeness's sake and also to allow others to follow up on that bug report, please also post the link to it here in the thread, thanks.
