Good way to determine network card

Is where a better way to find a network card than trial and error? 
This is what I've been trying:
modprobe <modules>
/etc/rc.d/network restart
Repeat
The network card I have is built in to my K8T-Neo.  The website says the drivers are for these cards:
Supports Realtek RTL8139/810x/c+/8169/8110 Gigabit Network chipsets
I've tried everything even remotely close to the above cards and nothing works.  When I type ifconfig I get nothing.

hwd -h
Except to use hwd or lshwd you need to use the network to install.  I used to keep the hwd and required packages on a floppy for this purpose.

    Sean,
    I mean I am always connecting to the nodemgr of the 2nd environment
    successfully. Only when I run the client part of the application that I know
    is up, I get a response from the Name Server that it is actually the first
    IP address.
    I checked again. I defenitely have FORTE_NS_ADDRESS set to IP:5004, in my
    case, and not the hostname. I don't have FORTE_LOCATIONS set any where. the
    NS_ADDRESS for env2 has only 1 IP address associated with it. My Forte
    Control Panel on the client, and hence the NS address has only one entry.
    I tried going into escript like you said, and the name service still thinks
    it is IP1.

    Subject: RE: Is there a way to have 2 network cards on the same
    machine
    Hmmmm? That is a little odd! Let me rehash what I think you are saying.
    You now have two environments each with their own name service with
    FORTE_NS_ADDRESS set to a different IP:Port combination. For example you
    are doing the steps:
    FORTE_NS_ADDRESS=255.255.255.1:5000
    start the nodemgr for env 1
    FORTE_NS_ADDRESS=255.255.255.2:5000
    start the nodemgr for env 2
    Now when you start a client you are always getting the address for env 1
    back from the nodemgr. I assume you actually mean the name service? Or, do
    you mean you are always connecting to the nodemgr & name service for env
    1?
    If the first scenario is the case and you are connecting to the nodemgr
    for
    env 2 but getting back IP's for services listening on the card for env 1 I
    would ask you what you are setting the FORTE_LOCATIONS value to before you
    start each service. If you are not setting it or are using the host name
    it
    will register using the IP for the primary network card associated with
    the
    machine name and I am again assuming that this is env 1. You need to set
    the FORTE_LOCATIONS variable to 255.255.255.2:0 (based on the steps above)
    before starting your services.
    If the second scenario is the case I would have you check what the
    FORTE_NS_ADDRESS is set to before you start up the client. Once again it
    must be the IP:Port combination not host:port combination if you want to
    get
    anything other than the primary card.
    I would also suggest that you do the following. After everything is up
    and
    running execute the following commands:
    escript -fns "ip for env1":port
    findsub nameservice
    showpart
    What you should see is everything currently registered under the name
    service. It will have the name and any "locations" (IP and port) that it
    is
    registered as listening on. I would look for the nodemgr and see where it
    has advertised itself. I would then look for any services you expect to
    be
    registered there and also verify where the have advertised themselves. If
    there are multiple locations listed for any one service, the client will
    use
    the first one in the list.
    Do the same for env 2.

    Hello Venkat,
    I probably should have mentioned this before. Your are correct. Forteis
    doing a host lookup if you are providing a name for examplemachine1:5000.
    You can bypass the host lookup by using the actual ip dot addressinstead
    for example 255.255.255.255:5000. This way you are taking the name
    service
    out od the picture and Forte will use the address provided.

    Subject: RE: Is there a way to have 2 network cards on the same
    machine
    OK, you ran into one of the issues. That is, if both addresses areknown
    to
    the client that is trying to contact the partition it will always usethe
    first address in FORTE_LOCATIONS. This is because FORTE_LOCATIONS was
    designed more as a failover mechanism. So it will always try the
    first
    address in the list and if it succeeds, there is no reason to move onto
    the
    second.
    Now, the second issue is that there is currently a problem with theclient
    failover to the secondary address in FORTE_LOCATIONS. If the firstentry
    fails it is supposed to retry on the second entry. Instead, it
    retries
    the
    first entry again. I know that Forte knows about this but I do nothave
    a
    bug number on it.
    With that said, lets look at a possible solution for you. If the real
    objective here is to have a back up network card available for fail
    over
    on
    the same machine, or use one card to advertise outside your firewalland
    one
    to use inside, then you will have to contact Forte to determine whenthe
    failover problem will be fixed. But, if the objective is to loadbalance
    across the network cards you could have the environment manager listenon
    both ports and then alternate your server partitions across both
    cards.
    For
    example:
    set FORTE_NS_ADDRESS=card1:5000;card2:5000 and then start up the
    environment
    manager
    set FORTE_LOCATIONS=card1:0 (the 0 in the port causes the OS to pick a
    port)
    and start partition one
    set FORTE_LOCATIONS=card2:0 and start partition two
    and so on....
    In this scenario the environment manager will be listening on bothcards
    but
    each server will be listening on only one of the two cards. So if a
    request
    comes in for partition1 it will go through card one and if it is for
    partition two it will go through card two. You could assign your
    partitions
    to cards based on expected load.
    Well, I am done. I hope this helps!

    Sean,
    Thanks for your reply. I tried the approach. I was not very specificin
    my
    question. I do need the ability for server applications to listen and
    server
    on both the network cards.
    I was succesfully able to make the nodemgr listen on both the cardsand
    actually serve requests coming in from both the cards. But, followingyour
    advise, I took a cautious step with FORTE_LOCATIONS. Here is what I
    noticed.
    I have an application that has 6 partitions in total. I used
    FORTE_LOCATION
    to make it listen on 1. Both the cards. 2. Swapped the IP addresses
    for
    both
    cards for this application. 3. One card that I want it to listen on. I
    tried
    all approaches by exporting the locations variable for just this
    application. The nodemgr recieves a request from this pc connected onthe
    second card to talk to one of the partitions. The node mgr responds
    with
    a
    proxy - with the ip address and socket number of the first card. The
    FORTE_NS_ADDRESS variable looks like this:
    IP1:5002;IP2:5002.
    Is it possible atall to resolve my problem, without having a seperate
    environment?

    Venkat,
    Actually, it is possible for Forte to listen on more than one IP andport
    combination. The first reply to your message was correct. If you
    set
    the
    FORTE_NS_ADDRESS to contain multiple entries before starting the
    name
    service, it will advertise on both. For Forte servers you use the
    FORTE_LOCATIONS env variable to get it to advertise on multipleip:port
    combinations.
    We were doing something very similar with another customer I was at
    to
    get
    around a firewall. I will warn you that there are some issues with
    FORTE_LOCATIONS that may keep that portion from working. However,
    from
    reading your note, it appears that all you need is for the nameservice
    to
    advertise and listen on multiple ports and that works fine. I justtested
    it again for sanity sake and it worked. I ran my test on NT using
    Forte
    3G2.

    Venkat,
    Technically yes this is possible, though not in Forte. A nameserver
    can
    only listen on one port.
    To implement this scheme you will have to write a proxy service (insome
    language
    including perhaps forte) which listens on the well-known port on the
    second card, reads requests, then forwards them to the realnameservice
    (wkp on the first card), and forwards replies back. This is not
    trivial, but some firewall toolkit vendors supply stub code to write
    application specific proxies.

    Hmmmm? That is a little odd! Let me rehash what I think you are saying.
    You now have two environments each with their own name service with
    FORTE_NS_ADDRESS set to a different IP:Port combination. For example you
    are doing the steps:
    FORTE_NS_ADDRESS=255.255.255.1:5000
    start the nodemgr for env 1
    FORTE_NS_ADDRESS=255.255.255.2:5000
    start the nodemgr for env 2
    Now when you start a client you are always getting the address for env 1
    back from the nodemgr. I assume you actually mean the name service? Or, do
    you mean you are always connecting to the nodemgr & name service for env 1?
    If the first scenario is the case and you are connecting to the nodemgr for
    env 2 but getting back IP's for services listening on the card for env 1 I
    would ask you what you are setting the FORTE_LOCATIONS value to before you
    start each service. If you are not setting it or are using the host name it
    will register using the IP for the primary network card associated with the
    machine name and I am again assuming that this is env 1. You need to set
    the FORTE_LOCATIONS variable to 255.255.255.2:0 (based on the steps above)
    before starting your services.
    If the second scenario is the case I would have you check what the
    FORTE_NS_ADDRESS is set to before you start up the client. Once again it
    must be the IP:Port combination not host:port combination if you want to get
    anything other than the primary card.
    I would also suggest that you do the following. After everything is up and
    running execute the following commands:
    escript -fns "ip for env1":port
    findsub nameservice
    showpart
    What you should see is everything currently registered under the name
    service. It will have the name and any "locations" (IP and port) that it is
    registered as listening on. I would look for the nodemgr and see where it
    has advertised itself. I would then look for any services you expect to be
    registered there and also verify where the have advertised themselves. If
    there are multiple locations listed for any one service, the client will use
    the first one in the list.
    Do the same for env 2.

    Hello Venkat,
    I probably should have mentioned this before. Your are correct. Forte is
    doing a host lookup if you are providing a name for example machine1:5000.
    You can bypass the host lookup by using the actual ip dot address instead
    for example 255.255.255.255:5000. This way you are taking the name
    service
    out od the picture and Forte will use the address provided.

    My requirement is that my second card serves as best case performance
    testing piece. This eliminates the network completely. We went one step
    ahead and created a new enviromnent for the second card. Whatever I do,
    the
    nodemgr is returning back the IP address of the first card, even though my
    FORTE_NS_ADDRESS does not have the first card in the picture any where.
    I think Forte is doing a host look up and returning the first IP address
    it
    finds, as opposed to returning the IP address specified in the environment
    variable FORTE_NS_ADDRESS. Is there a way to trick it?

    Subject: RE: Is there a way to have 2 network cards on the same
    machine
    OK, you ran into one of the issues. That is, if both addresses areknown
    to
    the client that is trying to contact the partition it will always usethe
    first address in FORTE_LOCATIONS. This is because FORTE_LOCATIONS was
    designed more as a failover mechanism. So it will always try the first
    address in the list and if it succeeds, there is no reason to move on to
    the
    second.
    Now, the second issue is that there is currently a problem with theclient
    failover to the secondary address in FORTE_LOCATIONS. If the firstentry
    fails it is supposed to retry on the second entry. Instead, it retries
    the
    first entry again. I know that Forte knows about this but I do not havea
    bug number on it.
    With that said, lets look at a possible solution for you. If the real
    objective here is to have a back up network card available for fail over
    on
    the same machine, or use one card to advertise outside your firewall and
    one
    to use inside, then you will have to contact Forte to determine when the
    failover problem will be fixed. But, if the objective is to loadbalance
    across the network cards you could have the environment manager listenon
    both ports and then alternate your server partitions across both cards.
    For
    example:
    set FORTE_NS_ADDRESS=card1:5000;card2:5000 and then start up the
    environment
    manager
    set FORTE_LOCATIONS=card1:0 (the 0 in the port causes the OS to pick a
    port)
    and start partition one
    set FORTE_LOCATIONS=card2:0 and start partition two
    and so on....
    In this scenario the environment manager will be listening on both cards
    but
    each server will be listening on only one of the two cards. So if a
    request
    comes in for partition1 it will go through card one and if it is for
    partition two it will go through card two. You could assign your
    partitions
    to cards based on expected load.
    Well, I am done. I hope this helps!

    Sean,
    Thanks for your reply. I tried the approach. I was not very specific in
    my
    question. I do need the ability for server applications to listen and
    server
    on both the network cards.
    I was succesfully able to make the nodemgr listen on both the cards and
    actually serve requests coming in from both the cards. But, followingyour
    advise, I took a cautious step with FORTE_LOCATIONS. Here is what I
    noticed.
    I have an application that has 6 partitions in total. I used
    FORTE_LOCATION
    to make it listen on 1. Both the cards. 2. Swapped the IP addresses for
    both
    cards for this application. 3. One card that I want it to listen on. I
    tried
    all approaches by exporting the locations variable for just this
    application. The nodemgr recieves a request from this pc connected onthe
    second card to talk to one of the partitions. The node mgr responds witha
    proxy - with the ip address and socket number of the first card. The
    FORTE_NS_ADDRESS variable looks like this:
    IP1:5002;IP2:5002.
    Is it possible atall to resolve my problem, without having a seperate
    environment?
    Thanks

    Venkat,
    Actually, it is possible for Forte to listen on more than one IP andport
    combination. The first reply to your message was correct. If you setthe
    FORTE_NS_ADDRESS to contain multiple entries before starting the name
    service, it will advertise on both. For Forte servers you use the
    FORTE_LOCATIONS env variable to get it to advertise on multiple
    ip:port
    combinations.
    We were doing something very similar with another customer I was at toget
    around a firewall. I will warn you that there are some issues with
    FORTE_LOCATIONS that may keep that portion from working. However,
    from
    reading your note, it appears that all you need is for the nameservice
    to
    advertise and listen on multiple ports and that works fine. I justtested
    it again for sanity sake and it worked. I ran my test on NT using
    Forte
    3G2.

    Venkat,
    Technically yes this is possible, though not in Forte. A nameserver
    can
    only listen on one port.
    To implement this scheme you will have to write a proxy service (insome
    language
    including perhaps forte) which listens on the well-known port on the
    second card, reads requests, then forwards them to the realnameservice
    (wkp on the first card), and forwards replies back. This is not
    trivial, but some firewall toolkit vendors supply stub code to write
    application specific proxies.

  • 2 network cards in Windows 8.1 but can't set the correct one to Private

    Hi, I already asked this question in the community forum  but was re-directed here as you guys know more about multiple network cards in Windows 8.
    I'm using Windows 8.1 with 2 network cards. One for my internal LAN (will call this my secure LAN which has a static IP) and one for connection to the internet (Internet LAN which is DHCP). Both networks are totally physically seperate. This is for a combination
    of speed and security purposes (lot of internet traffic on the internet LAN and I want that card locked down to prevent file sharing on it)
    By default, both of the cards have their network properties set to public. To date I have not found any way to set the secure LAN card to private and the Internet card to public. If I enable file sharing in the private bit of "advanced settings" and
    go to the Metro settings (whatever the fancy name is) under PC Settings/Network/Connections, there is only a generic "network" icon shown (rather than 2 netowrk icons, one for each card). When clicked, this correlates to the network card connected
    to the internet. I can make this card public or private by changing the "Find devices and Content" switch on or off but this does not impact the card connected to the secure LAN. I tried disabling the Internet card and re running the setup (which
    this time configured the secure LAN card) which I think did allow me to change it to private but as soon as the internet LAN card was re-enabled it reverted to that one being private and my secure LAN to public.
    so - The config I am left with is the wrong way round (ie the internet card set to private and my private LAN card set to public!)
    Similarly, I tried using regedit. In HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\NetworkList\Profiles\ <Profile ID> I can change the REG_DWORD to 1 or 0 but this only impacts the private / public settings of the card connected to the
    internet.
    I am guessing that Windows is kind of combining these 2 cards into 1 network profile and there is some priority thing going on that it gives priority to the card connected to the internet in terms of config?
    Anyone got any ideas on how to force one card to private and the other to public?
    Thanks Guys.
    Al.

      This is caused by the default security policy which blocks file sharing with unidentified networks by making them public. (How it determines unidentified networks is another interesting question). To allow file sharing, you have to change the local
    security policy to allow unidentified networks to be private.

  • How to reset a network/network card

    Hi folks, i have an old wallstreet g3 running os 10.2.8.
    I tried to change some network settings with a utility called Cocktail but it went south and now my built in network card won't work anymore.
    Is there any way of resetting the hardware so the card gets his default settings back ?
    I tried re-installing the OS but the problem remains.
    Thanks.

    Prodigy,
    I believe the issue is strictly software, not hardware, as long as the Ethernet card has not failed. These third-party utilities can sometimes do more harm than good and other than running the maintenance scripts and emptying caches, I would do nothing else with them unless you are having serious software problems.
    You mentioned re-installing the software...did you erase the HD and install an all-new OSX, or perform an archive & install? If the latter, try this procedure: Create a new user account:
    - open System Preferences > Accounts and create a new user and name it Test;
    - log out/log in to the Test account;
    - go to your System Prefs > Network and set up the network with the correct settings.
    If you have your Internet connection back, the original problem lies in your Home (user) account. I would log out/log in to your Home account, go to System Prefs > Network and establish a New Location using your settings...see if it will work.
    You can try the last suggestion first, but you do want establish whether the problem lies in your Home account or is in fact a system-wide problem.

  • New network card caused: Error Codes: OAMP2OPY:GIQKCQ7V

    Error generating view. Error getting cursor in GenerateHead
    Error Details
    Error Codes: OAMP2OPY:GIQKCQ7V
    Too many running queries. Server is too busy to process any more queries at this time.
    the server can still connect to the database..
    the IP address has not changed..
    how do I fix this?

    Metalink ID 1462776.1
    1. The Oracle Database instance is configured by default to run only 150 PROCESSES;
    the maximum load for dedicated connections is determined by the PROCESSES parameter.
    When the listener believes the current number of connections has reached maximum load, it may set the state of the
    service handler for an instance to "blocked" and begin refusing incoming client connections with the following error (in biserver1.log set in debug level):
    "TNS-12516 TNS:listener could not find instance with matching protocol stack"
    Tip:
    Verify the Oracle database processes parameter setting. It is also a good idea to make sure the Oracle database sessions and open cursors settings are large enough.
    2. Increase the number of concurrent client connections (sessions) to OBI server.
    Each client request to OBI Server uses one SERVER_THREAD.
    Each SERVER_THREAD uses 0 or more DB_GATEWAY_THREADs depending upon the number of DB queries executed.
    Following NQSConfig.INI parameters need to be tuned (refer to OBIEE tuning guide for details on initial values to be set):
    [ SERVER ]
    MAX_SESSION_LIMIT
    SERVER_THREAD_RANGE
    DB_GATEWAY_THREAD_RANGE
    3. Cleanup Web catalog via instanceconfig.xml using the steps documented in "Validating the Catalog" in System Administrator's Guide for Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition.
    4. In instanceconfig.xml file for each instance, add the following parameters within Cache/Query tags:
    <Cache>
    <Query>
    <MaxEntries>10000</MaxEntries>
    <AbsoluteMaxEntries>20000</AbsoluteMaxEntries>
    <CruiseEntries>3000</CruiseEntries>
    <ForceLRU>true</ForceLRU>
    </Query>
    </Cache>
    5. Make sure you have enough system resources available on BI Servers (sawserver, nqsserver).
    6. Unstable network connection link between OBIEE servers and Database server.

  • Installation of wireless pci network card

    In all the research I have gone through in order to decide what wireless network card I would use, I keep seeing from time to time a reference to which mac operating system version should be in place prior to installation of card. This I found was particularly for NIC(PCI cards) that had 802.11B,G
    protocol. There was a caution to use mac osx version 10? is this correct (am I reading this correctly?)or can These NIC(PCI Cards) still run correctly with any version of mac osx?

    Are you really using 10.0.X?

    Yeah, I think you'll have variable results depending on which version of OS X you're running.

  • WRT54G Extremely slow navigating pages @ 192.168.1.1 - Could this be a network card problem?

    Friend of mine is having Internet connection issues on his main PC which is hard wired to the router, He's using Comcast cable (18Mbit) and all of a sudden today the speed dropped to dialup speeds, literally, however its ONLY this main pc with the speed issue, there are 2 other computers connected wireless to the router and they are running full speed when testing on speedtest.net
    While troubleshooting the problem I tried bypassing the router and the speed issue still remains, So I can pretty much rule out the router, But as part of my troubleshooting whenever I try to access the router's configuration pages via 192.168.1.1 it is VERY slow at responding.
     For example when hitting enter after typing 192.168.1.1 it takes around 45 seconds to display the router configuration page, and at that point clicking on any other tabs takes 30 - 45 seconds as well to respond.
    So my main question with this post is, is it possible his network card went bad? What would cause really slow access to the router configuration?
    The PC is running Win 7 Ultimate 32bit and Ive tried running the network troubleshooter, uninstalled his network card in device manager / reinstalled the drivers but nothing seems to be working.
    I also ran Malware Bytes and scan results were clean. 
    Any ideas appreciated!

  • Windows sharing with two network cards

    Hello,
    I am running OSX 10.4.11 and enables Windows file service.
    I have two network cards. one is public (due to the web server) and one is private (192.x.x.x).
    Is there a way to make only the 192.x.x.x accessible via the Windows file services? I don't want anyone that is a local user to be able to get to any of the shared folders via the public address. Like if they were at home or something.
    Hope this makes sense.
    Thanks,
    Jay

    Hello Jay,
    Your question does make sense!
    And in fact Samba (the software that delivers the Windows file service on a Mac) has configuration options to do just what you want. That's the good news. The bad news is that I don't know a way to set those configuration options from the GUI. If you are confident to use a terminal and edit configuration files by hand then you should be able to establish the Windows file service running on just one interface.
    First you need to find out the real name of the interface on which the Windows file service should run. One way is to look under Apple\About this Mac\Network or in a terminal enter:
    ifconfig
    My Mac Mini has en0 (wired) and en1 (airport) as network interfaces. Suppose en1 is the interface on which file sharing is wanted (you should replace en1 in my example by the name of your network interface!)
    Next edit the file /etc/smb.conf in a terminal by:
    sudo nano /etc/smb.conf
    In the [global] section add the following lines:
    interfaces = en1
    bind interfaces only = true
    Save your edits by pressing Ctrl-O and exit the editor by pressing Ctrl-X
    After restarting you can check if it works as expected.

    As far as I know, Lenovo offers no way to disable the whitelisting for MiniPCIe cards in the BIOS/UEFI firmware.

  • Is there a way to determine exactly where a breakpoint occurs?

    Hello everyone:  I am having trouble getting my head around this problem I am having, so I'm hoping someone here has run into something like this and has a tip for me.
    I have a PXI-7354 that I am using to control a rotary stage which has an 8000 lpr encoder, and a 10:1 reduction gear, so I have 80,000 lpr effectively.
    I am using the 7354 to generate a Breakpoint Pulse every 100 encoder counts, so I should be getting 800 pulses per revolution.  (I use the breakpoint pulses to trigger a second device and aPXIe-5122 data acquisition card to synchronize the production and acquisition of a data record.)
    However, and here's the problem:
    When I rotate 1 revolution, I see 799 pulses
    When I rotate 2 revolutions, I see 1598 pulses
    When I rotate 3 revolutions, I see 2397 pulses
    etc. 
    I am losing 1 pulse per revolution. I haven't figured this out yet, as I am using periodic breakpoints with a whole number of breakpoints as a period.
    THe problem is that I "count" the number of breakpoint pulses that I get in order to derive the angular position where the breakpoint occurs.  For instance, if I start at 0 degrees, and I have 0.45 degree spacing between breakpoints, after 10 pulses, I should be at 4.05 degrees.  After 100 pulses, I should be at  44.55 degrees.
    As I am missing one count per rev, however, my derived angular position is incorrect.
    I need a way to determine the actual position of each breakpoint.  The most obvious way to do this is to use the HS capture functionality of the board, and I could (further) share the breakpoint pulse with the HS Capture input on the motion card to do HS capture, but is there any way to do this internally on the 7354?
    Thanks for looking at this, any help is appreciated.

    Thanks for your response, Matt.
    I have already got the BP signal going to my external device via a UMI-7774, so this is not a problem.  The tricky part of this question is whether there is an easy way to "share" the BP information with the HS Capture INPUT line so that I can grab a HS position when the BPs are generated, so that I'd have a buffer of ACTUAL position, rather than relying on the BPs being in the correct location (and DERIVING the instantaneous position of the BPs by counting the BPs).  It seems that it is NOT possible to share the signal by routing the BP1 Out simultaneously to the external UMI 7774 pin AND to either the HS Capture INPUT OR to my data acquisition card.  I know that I can route my encoder signal and other things to my DAQ card, but this won't help me in this case.  Furthermore, I can only have 1 BP per axis, so it isn't possible to replicate that functionality on a second BP generator.
    I am working on setting up a third device to count the pulses generated by the 7354 when I exercise the stage through motion, so I'll have more data later today.
    I'll post here any findings.
    Thanks again,
