We have a new server (Fedora Core 5) with a four port Intel NIC card.
The CD that came with the card has a driver for the e1000 gb card. Below
is the list from the "locate e1000" command.
I don't know if this means that the driver is configured correctly or
not?
Our network engineer is not a Linux user so I am helping as I can with
this deployment. We have Web Hosting on this server and several clients
need a private ips for their eCommerce sites.
Thanks in advance for your assistance.
First of all.... a private IP Address for your customers doesn't have
anything to do with a 4 port ethernet card. I have a web server with
252 ips on one nic.
Second of all... I am pretty sure that the e1000 driver is pretty
standard and you won't need your cd. If you install the 4port card
and boot, you should be able to do /sbin/ifconfig
and see eth0, eth1, eth2, and eth3.
If you want to have more than one IP Address on your box, you can just do
ifconfig eth0:0 ip.address.2
ifconfig eth0:1 ip.address.3
etc
you can go through a gui to do the same thing... I generally just add
/sbin/ifconfig eth0:0 ip.address.2
etc to my
/etc/rc.d/rc.local file and let it get done at boot time.
You'll have to setup apache to map /var/www/html/site1, /var/www/html/
site2, etc to the different ip addresses so apache will give the correct
web site for each ip. ... again... this has nothing to do with a 4 port
ethernet card....
