How do I determine if my network adapter is in the kernel?

Hello everyone Great job on this distro.  I am a newbie Anyway quick question on other platforms(Freebsd,etc) my nic card is listed as sis0.  I can't seem to get the OS to recognize the nic card.  Doing a dmesg shows that the board is a SIS 730 chipset.  Any suggestions on how to get this to work?  I have a W2k dhcp server and a router with IP address 192.168.x.x that Arch picks up no problem as the default gateway.  Just a little confused...Mark

Hi Mark,
Here is some info I hope you find useful.
1.  SIS5513:IDE Controller at...SIS5513:not 100% native mode:will probe irqs later.
This is not your ethernet card chipset.  This refers to your northbridge/southbridge chipsets.  These are simply two chips that the CPU talks through to perform many functions.  The CPU uses IDE via the southbridge chip, in your case the SIS5513.  You can safely ignore this message.  I'm not familiar with the sis900 module, but is it for a PCI ethernet card?  If so, you can confirm that this is the proper module by:
[root@limbo linux]# cat /proc/pci | grep -i eth
Ethernet controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT6102 [Rhine-II] (rev 67)
As you can see, in my case, I have a PCI ethernet card that uses the via-rhine module.
2.  Have you properly edited the "eth0 = " section in /etc/rc.conf?  You have to set it up properly.  How to you connect to the internet?  I can't really make suggestions about how to edit rc.conf unless you provide info on how you connect to the internet.
3.  Assuming you have /etc/rc.conf properly configured, after you "modprobe sis900" you have only enabled the module for your card.  You still have to start your network connection.  What is the output of the following command?
[root@limbo linux]# /etc/rc.d/network start
4.  If (3) starts the network fine, then add network to the list of services you want started at boot in /etc/rc.conf
I hope you find this info helpful.  I know how frustrating it is when things aren't working (all too well ), but hang in there, you'll get it.

    download connections doesn't close after I cancel the download, it keep like I am downloading and only close when I disable the network adapter or reset the router or the firewall.
    I use pfsense as my firewall and see the traffic not reseting to zero when I cancel download.
    Also, IE doesn't have this problem. When I cancel the download the traffic drops to zero.

    And this problem seems to be systemwide. Since I created a new user and under which problem still exists.
    Hope apple will look into it

  • Windows 8.1 Enterprise - Hyper-v, Legacy Network Adapter works, but the Network Adapter does not

    Folks,
    I currently have 2 Virtual Switches: one I set up for WIFI, and the other I set up for
    LAN.
    Both switches are set up as:
    - EXTERNAL
    - Allow management operating system to share this network adapter
    Both switches I can use with my Legacy Network Adapter.
    But the Network Adapter doesn't doesn't work for either.

  • How to disable/uncheck IPv6 in network adapter properties

    Hi,
    I need to programmtically disable/uncheck IPv6 during all Windows 7 deployments. Does anyone know where to find this in the registry or is there a Microsoft utility you can can use to achieve this?
    This is what I'm talking about:
    Open Network and Sharing Center
    Click Change adapter settings in the upper left
    Right click Local Area Connection
    Choose Properties
    On the networking tab, look for Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6)
    I need to uncheck the checkbox on that line item
      Thanks a lot for your help!
      Rob

    Microsoft has a command line program nvspbind (http://archive.msdn.microsoft.com/nvspbind), that can disable ipv6 on a specific interface. It seems to be identical to unchecking the
    IPv6 box in adapter settings dialog. You can launch this program from a script or your program.
    The command line arguments to disable IPv6 on a particular interface is:
    nvspbind -d {GUID} ms_tcpip6

  • How do I delete old wifi networks from appearing in the wifi icon in the menu bar.

    Just bought a new Airport Time Capsule and is up and running OK.
    When I click on the wifi icon in the menu bar all my old wifi networks appear 
    which are then viewable by neighbours although the networks themselves are PW protected.
    In system preferences>network>advanced I have deleted all my old N/Works allowing only
    my new one to appear.
    How can I delete the old networks I no longer use from re-appearing in the list under the wifi icon?
    Alan

    When you delete old networks in System Preferences > Network > WiFi > Advanced, be sure to click the OK button, then click the Apply button in the next window that appears.
    You also need to delete the old networks in KeyChain Access as follows:
    Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > KeyChain Access
    Click on the name of an old wireless network to highlight it
    Click the Delete key on your Mac
    Do the same for other old wireless networks that you no longer use, then restart your Mac.

  • How can I enable Active Directory network login while maintaining the existing local user account data?

    We have a user base of around 15 Macs that we would like to integrate into Active Directory. However, we need to maintain the existing users local account data but do not wish to have that data moved to the network. Is there an easy way to create the AD login and then move the existing account data to the new login while maintaining correct permissions?
    I've had some success logging in as root and deleting the existing account, while maintaining the home folder. Then renaming it to match the AD login account name and replacing the new and empty AD user home.  I then perform a CHOWN on that folder to give ownership to the AD account name.
    Is it this simple? I don't want to leave any loose ends.

  • How do I determine if a VI is running in the runtime engine or LabView Development Environment?

    Is there a function or VI that I can call that will tell me if the program is running in the LabVIEW Runtime Engine or if it is running in the LabVIEW developement Environment?  I am using LabView 8.5.
    I have a menu item, File/Exit,  and I would like to call the Exit LabVIEW vi if running in the runtime engine when that item is selected.  However, in development, I don't want to shut down LabVIEW when I select that menu item.
    Maybe there is a more appropriate way to exit the program.  However, I am looking for something elegant.  I'm sure I could find some other way to accomplish the same thing, but I'm looking for a clean way to do it.
    Thanks

  • Using a Third Party Network Adapter

    I would like to use a third-party network adapter instead of the Realtek network adapter built in to my L955-S5370. Are there any changes I need to make to the laptop before I connect the third-party network adapter? I thought I might want to disable the Realtek adapter in Device Manager.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Found my answer:
    Before adding a third-party wireless network adapter to a laptop that has a built-in wireless network adapter, you need to disable the laptop's built-in wireless network adapter. There are two ways to do this:
    From the Network and Sharing Center. These instructions from Microsoft were initially written for Windows Vista, but they work the same way for Windows 7 and Windows 8: Enable or disable a network adapter.
    From Device Manager. You don't have to be a 'dummy' to follow these instructions: How to Disable the Original WiFi adapter.
    If the laptop's wireless network adapter is re-enabled every time you reboot, you may need to disable the WLAN AutoConfig service, as follows:
    Go to Administrative Tools > Services
    If the WLAN AutoConfig service is enabled, Stop and then Disable that service.
    The laptops's wireless network adapter is now permanently disabled.

  • DirectAccess Network Adapter Error

    I have setup DirectAccess on 2012R2, and keep getting the following error after setting up the configuration.
    Error:
    DirectAccess clients cannot connect to all resources on the corporate network.
    Causes:
    Routes required to send packets to the corporate network have not
    been published on adapter Ethernet. These routes are required for
    remote clients to reach the corporate network.
    Resolution:
    Publish the IPv6 routes on the network adapter that connects the server to the corporate network.
    I have set this up multiple times before and never had an error like this. I can't figure out how to resolve it. This is on a small network with a DC, File Server, DA server running as VMs on hyper-v 2012R2.

    Hi,
    Here are some things you might try:
    1. Make sure your listener is actually up: lsnrctl status
    2. Try using the fully qualified host name (including domain) if you are not already doing so.
    3. Even if you uninstalled Studio, you might check your Windows ENV settings. (Not really sure, but to be safe!)
    That is, for [3], make sure any references to Studio have been removed from the PATH variable. You might also check to make sure either to remove any ORACLE_HOME variable, or at least make sure it makes no reference to the prior Studio installation.

  • Can't open TCP connection when two network adapter are enabled

    Hi all, 
    I've an applicaiton that connect using "TCP Open Connection". The applicaiton is running on a computer have two network adapters configured to be on two different network.
    When I start the application, if both network adapters are enabled, connection is not created (timeout). When I disable the network adapter which is not configured for the network I need, connection is succesfull.
    - How can I choose which adapter to use to open the connection, as LabView seems enable to select the good one.
    - Or I can I disable a network adapter (just for the connection time) 
    I'm using LabView 8.5 Full on Windows XP.
    Thanks for your help

    This is generally a routing issue. The OS will route connections to your primary network if it is not a direct route. For example, one network is 10.3.4.x (primary network) and the other is 192.168.1.x.with a subnet of 255.255.255.0. Now, let's say you want to reach a device with an 192.168.2.x address. The OS will try to route this through the primary network but is has no route to reach the 192.168.2.x subnet. Therefore your connection fails. You can add a permanent route to your computer to force specific address ranges to specific NICs. Use the ROUTE ADD command which is part of the OS. If you are trying to reach the computer using a name instead of the IP address the issue is basically the same but a but more challenging to resolve. The OS will do th elookup on your defined DNS servers. They generally do not have knowledge of local private networks and therefore can't resolve the name. In this case you need to create a more involved network infrastructure to update the name server. Probably not something that is feasible to do.

  • How to do Server 2012 R2 Network Policy Server MAC Authentication without adding ad users?

    I have a Network Policy Server running on Server 2012 R2.  I have set it up to do certificate and PEAP authentication for our 802.1x wireless authentication
    and that works great.
    Now I want to add a policy to this server so I can also do MAC address authentication our unauthenticated open wireless ssid so i can assign roles based on the
    mac address.  I got our Aruba controller setup to send the mac address to the radius server, but the radius server just denies access because I am not sure how to get it to use themsNPCallingStationID attribute. 
    I have found several ways do to this included adding active directory users for every single MAC address with the mac address as the username and password.  I
    do not want to do that.  This is not an option.
    I have also found several posts about using ieee802Device.  I can't find a way to get that to work.
    I also found a suggestion to use msNPCallingStationID ad attribute.  I can easily set this for each user as their mac addresses but how do I configure the
    NPS server to use this attribute to authenticate this?
    If you have any other ideas on how to get MAC authentication to work, I would greatly appreciate it!
    Thank you for your assistance!

    Hi,
    I think you may have some misunderstand about the MAC address Authorization, MAC address authorization is based on the MAC address of the network adapter installed in
    the access client computer. Like ANI authorization, MAC address authorization uses the Calling-Station-ID attribute instead of user name and password or certificate-based credentials to identify the user during the connection attempt.
    MAC address authorization is performed when the user does not type in any user name or password, and refuses to use any valid authentication method. In this case, Network
    Policy Server (NPS) receives the Calling-Station-ID attribute, and no user name and password. To support MAC address authorization, Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) must have user accounts that contain MAC addresses as user names, therefore you need
    add the MAC address as the computer user name and password,
    To use the MAC address as user name and password is Cisco® switch require condition, about your switch device please ask your hardware vendor.
    If you want to combine the MAC address MAC filtering and
     EAP Authentication, you can refer the following related article:
