no internet in my ubuntu clients please help
-
@KOM yes there are other clients online on tower but none are ubuntu clients
-
@KOM you mean 169.254.0.0/16 dev enp0s25 scope link metric 1000
-
OK, so it's a Ubuntu issue exclusively. Where did 169.254.0.0/16 come from? That's an APIPA address. If that's what you've got for IP addresses, then that means none of the cliens could get an address from the DHCP server.
-
@KOM 172.16.0.0/20 enp025 proto link src 172.16.12.240 metric 100
this is under the one i just shared -
Just for a test, what happens if you configure one of these Ubuntu clients with a static IP address, netmask & gateway? Then try to ping 8.8.8.8.
-
@KOM tried still no luck
-
And these are physical clients or virtual machines?
-
@KOM physical
-
Well, I'm stumped. We've gone through pretty much everything.
-
@KOM ya i know i was hoping that someone else had a thought about it. The machine use to have windows installed so i know it worked on the network before.
-
here is a question: does ubuntu not like the netmask of 255.255.240.0?
-
I can't see why. That's a common mask. Test it by manually setting the mask to a /24 or /16 or something.
-
@KOM found the problem i think. i can setup a new Network Profile in static Mode and its working for now.
-
I spin up Ubuntu servers all the time, both static and dynamic, and they never have any problems talking. If it's working for you then great. I suspected it might be something totally weird, but you had it with three different boxes.
