:: net0: transmit timeout 8200: shutting down device
:: telnet: connect: connection timed out
::
:: I have added (using 'devices' command) net0 and pty's, and configured
:: the following files:
:: /etc/rc.include
:: /etc/hosts
:: /etc/rc.tcpip
:: A. Elgouri
Few things to try out:
1. Interrupt vector setting on your card and the one you used in the
devices command. The boards come with a setting of 9, and the devices
command comes up with "3" when adding the net0 device. Make sure they
match.
2. Edit the file /etc/net to comment the stanza corresponding to net0,
and add the line (also edit the ipnumber):
rip = input, output
as the fourth if it's not already there. Run netconfig to configure
the interfaces. This is usually done in your rc.tcpip file. Also,
have you added the appropriate :
ifconfig net0 `hostname` ...
line in your rc.tcpip?
3. Bad cable/connector. Make sure the connection is ok. If you're using
a DESTA, check the cable between the transceiver and the board.
Hope it helps.
