I have a basic network setup whereas I don't run DNS but just etc/host
file with just three PCs set up with 10.0.0.x addresses and dhcp for a
laptop. I seem to be have network troubles with my main workstation.
When I do an ifconfig, I see the following:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:02:E3:05:92:46
inet addr:10.0.0.1 Bcast:10.0.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:1010 errors:508 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:1369
TX packets:6384 errors:12 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:24
collisions:0 txqueuelen:100
RX bytes:171095 (167.0 Kb) TX bytes:8399187 (8.0 Mb)
Interrupt:10 Base address:0x9000
My concern is the errors with the RX packets. They seem abnormally
high. When I do a route -n, I see the following:
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use
Iface
10.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0
eth0
127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0
lo
Did I forget to configure something that is causing my network troubles?
