Upgrade From Squeeze To Wheezy Network Issue

I recently decided to upgrade from Debian Squeeze to Wheezy. Update seemed to go fine with the exception of the following warning concerning my Broadcom bmc5704 gigabit ethernet cards

Quote:
W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/tigon/tg3_tso5.bin for module tg3
W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/tigon/tg3_tso.bin for module tg3
W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/tigon/tg3.bin for module tg3
No problem I will simply install the missing .bin files after the upgrade. Get the .bin files from the Debian repository and install them using the command "dpkg -i file_name.deb" then ran "apt-get install -f" for good measure. Still nothing, I have downloaded the following files and running that same command for each hoping that this would solve my compatibility issue with no such luck.

firmware-linux-nonfree_0.36+wheezy.1_all.deb
firmware-linux-nonfree_0.36+wheezy.1~bpo60+1_all.deb
When I attempt to go into System Preferences > Network I get the message "The system network services are not compatible with this version."

I showed the hardware using the lshw command and here is the entry concerning the ethernet interface

At this point I am stumped. Not sure exactly what to do but it seems like a fairly simple fix. If anyone has any suggestions I would sure appreciate the help. Let me know if you need anything.

Failed To Bring Up Eth1 - Debian Wheezy

Hi,

I tried to configure my ethernet interface on a Debian Wheezy VM, but I've a problem. When I try to restart /etc/init.d/networking, I've no error message.
But my eth1 interface isn't up and when I try to up it with : ifup eth1, it return me :

Code:
root@debian-main:/# ifup eth1
RTNETLINK answers: File exists
Failed to bring up eth1

My /etc/network/interface file is :

Code:
auto eth0
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp


iface eth1 inet static
        address 192.168.10.1
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        gateway 192.168.10.254

Eth0 is my internet interface and eth1 is a local interface. I want to install a DNS and a DHCP server on eth1 to be able to connect client with this VM and give them an ip adress.

Thanks guys

Wireless Network Setting In Mint

also, i noticed wlan0 on #ifconfig command.
on the network setting configure NAT (also tried with NAT bridged)

my problem is that - i cannot see any wireless networks.
i followed few guides from youtube and here but with no luck.
it show me that i'm wired connected.
i attached screenshot bellow.
please kindly assist me.


additional information:
#airmon-ng start wlan0
when i type #ifconfig, i saw that wlan0 changed to wlan0mon
and with#airodump-ng command on wlan0mon i didn't see any wireless network as well

I also installed Wicd but could not run "could not connect to wicd's D-Bus interface. Check the wicd log for error messages."

Regular Expression In Expect Script To Prevent Printing To Screen

Hello, I have an expect script where I ssh to a remote host to determine the network configuration and get from the user the network interface card that should be used. From their response, I determine the subnet mask and save the information to a text file that is later transmitted back to my local host. This is all so that I can set up virtual IP aliasing and verify that the physical IP address of the local and remote host are on the same subnet prior to continuing with the setup. I am running the script on Linux, with expect version 5.45.

The code itelf works just fine, but I'm having some issues with how it displays on the screen. As you'll see below in the example, the default system prompt displays, as does the user input command that I'm sending to the shell from the expect script.

Is there a regular expression or something that I can write to prevent the prompt and command that I'm sending from printing to the screen? I know that it should be suppressed if I have an expect command following the Code:
send -s "\nread n_card?'Enter the network interface card number for this server (i.e. eth0):   '\r

command, but everything I have tried for strings and regular expressions to expect causes the netstat -rn output to not show up all of a sudden. I'm new to expect, so I'm not really sure why this is happening.

I would really appreciate any help/suggestions. Thanks for your time!

Part of the Script Code:
Code:
expect {
   -re $prompt {   ;# Send individual commands and get user input
        set timeout -1
        
        # Get partner hostname and put in vipsetup.txt file
        send -s "hostname > vipsetup.txt\r"  
        expect -re $prompt
        
        # Display the network routing info for the user and prompt for 
        # network interface card number
        send -s "print \"The network routing table for the $ptner server is displayed below:\n\" ; netstat -rn \r"
        
        expect -re "\r(.*):\r"
        send -s "\nread n_card?'Enter the network interface card number for this server (i.e. eth0):   '\r"
        interact "\r" return    ;# Wait for user input from read command
        send -- "\r"
        send -s "echo \$n_card >> vipsetup.txt\r"  
        
        # Obtain subnet mask information for partner based on network 
        # interface card number being used
        send -s "msk=\$(cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-\$n_card | grep NETMASK)\r"
        send -s "msk=\$(echo \${msk#NETMASK=})\r"
        send -s "echo \$msk >> vipsetup.txt\r"
    }
    timeout {
        send_user "Connection to host $hostip timed out."
        exit 6 
    }
    eof {
        send_user "Connection to host $hostip failed."

Linux Not Accepting Udp And Tcp Ethernet Packets

I am trying to build a socket to retrieve the ethernet packets from ecu. When i run my code on windows there is no problem and the code runs correctly. But when i run my code on Linux it gets stuck at s.recv(65565). I have already set static ip in /etc/network/interfaces as follows: iface eth0 inet static address 160.48.199.91 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 160.48.199.254

I tried a simple code of socket on raspberry pi. but it still gets stuck at s.recv(65565). I also tried to implement the program using multicast. but the problem is that when i create a socket for icmp protocols then I could see the data from the ECU after using command "ping -I echo 239.192.255.251" in another terminal. (where 239.192.255.251 is the multicast address) But when I change the socket protocol type to udp, tcp or raw then it again gets stuck at s.recv().

Imp: When i run the "netstat -s" command in terminal then i could see that there are 0 messages received for udp and tcp. But in Wireshark i could see the udp messages from ECU. Is linux killing all the udp and tcp packets ? How should i solve this ?
(complete setup is connected as: ECU ---> Media converter ---> Raspberry Pi. There is no LAN, no firewall, no internet)

Could anyone please help me with this problem ?

Help Please Debian

I am attempting to install debian to a desktop and It is not configuring my wireless adapter. I am including the error messages as follows:

"missing firm ware file htc-9271.fw"
"Network is probably not using dhcp protocol, network may be slow or hardare not working properly"

I attempted to go to /etc/network/interfaces as root however it says I do not have permission. I then tried adding a new user then going to visudo to add permissions but am unable to insert anything using the (i) command. So at this point I am at a loss.

Any help is greatly appreciated and thank you for your time.

Network Configuration For Redhat 7

I just installed Redhat 7 and try to config the network , add the IP address to network card , but I got the problem.

I modify the file /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-enp0s3 , the configuration is as below , and then reboot .

DEVICE="enp0s3"
NETBOOT="yes"
HWADDR="08:00:27:15:38:B7"
TYPE="Ethernet"
BOOTPROTO="none"
NAME="enp0s3"

ONBOOT="yes"
IPADDR="192.168.1.1"
NETMASK="255.255.255.0"

After reboot , I use "ip addr show" still not shown the ip address , the ip address is still blank , would advise what is wrong ? thanks
