IP info for eth0...Failed

[Aryana]

I am still testing the system, I got a new computer with two dialogic cards, D/41E and D/21D.and I wanted to reuse the harddrive with the vicidialNOW installation I had on the original computer, so I switched it. When restarting on the new computer, it failed to determine IP information for eth0 and now I cannot access the vicidial webpage on my terminal computer.

My first suspicion is the change of ethernet cards made the configuration get messed up, but how can I fix this? Is a full re-install of the system be the best option?

(At this point I wish my boss would just hire someone who knew something about dialers.)

If I run ifconfig eth0

I get this:

Link encap: Ethernet HWaddr 00:C0:4F:S1:C8:01

I also have a bunch of mails with the following:

unknown remote host: at /usr/share/astguiclient/AST_conf_update.pl line 188

Also, I can't get the computer to boot from the CD.

err dialogic cards?

anyway do this

ifconfig eth0

if it dont have any ip address for eth0

system-config-network

then you can config your network cards

dont forget to run server_update_ip

also check if your lan card was installed by

lspci

to check any errors

dmesg
