    the other day I was trying to install Cinnamon from Source code in a CentOS v.6.4. Unfortunately, I was stumbling upon dependencies that were becoming weird each and every time. Some of them, I tried to build, but didn't work. They needed things like GTK+ of certain version that wasn't available for CentOS.

    Do you know if there is anyway to install Cinnamon in CentOS?

    You can always use an RPM search engine to find a cinnamon RPM and install that way. Just download the RPM and install using

    rpm -ivh cinnamon-1.4-1.src.rpm

    linux - Can't ping ip's or hostnames on fresh CentOS 6.2 install
  • Henry F.

    I just installed CentOS 6.2 on a box using ipmi and have tried setting up the network with no luck.

    I've got a 66.x.x.56/29 allocation of ip addresses on vlan (66.x.x.56 to 66.x.x.63), so I have set up 5 ips on one of the nics. 66.x.x.57 is the gateway.

    My problem is I can ping any of the 5 ip's on eth1 and get a response, but I cannot ping the gateway or any other ip/hostname. Basically, no outside connections..

    /etc/resolv.conf:

    nameserver 8.8.8.8
    nameserver 8.8.4.4
    

    /etc/sysconfig/network

    NETWORKING=yes
    NETWORKING_IPV6=no
    HOSTNAME=hostname.mydomain.com
    GATEWAY=66.x.x.57
    

    /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1

    DEVICE="eth1"
    BOOTPROTO=none
    IPADDR=66.x.x.58
    NETMASK=255.255.255.248
    ONBOOT=yes
    

    /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1:1

    DEVICE="eth1:1"
    BOOTPROTO=none
    IPADDR=66.x.x.59
    NETMASK=255.255.255.248
    ONBOOT=yes
    

    /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1:2

    DEVICE="eth1:2"
    BOOTPROTO=none
    IPADDR=66.x.x.60
    NETMASK=255.255.255.248
    ONBOOT=yes
    

    /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1:3

    DEVICE="eth1:3"
    BOOTPROTO=none
    IPADDR=66.x.x.61
    NETMASK=255.255.255.248
    ONBOOT=yes
    

    /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1:4

    DEVICE="eth1:4"
    BOOTPROTO=none
    IPADDR=66.x.x.62
    NETMASK=255.255.255.248
    ONBOOT=yes
    

    route -n

    Dest           Gateway       Genmask            Flags   Metric   Ref  Use   Iface
    66.x.x.56      0.0.0.0       255.255.255.248    U       0        0    0     eth1
    169.254.0.0    0.0.0.0       255.255.0.0        U       1003     0    0     eth1
    0.0.0.0        66.x.x.57     0.0.0.0            UG      0        0    0     eth1
    

    Please let me know if I left anything out.I included anything that I thought was necessary! Any help is greatly appreciated!

    .56 is the subnet address. You can't use it as a host address. When you try to reach the gateway, the source IP address is the subnet address, leaving the gateway baffled as to how to respond. By assigning .56 to the physical interface, you have made it the default source IP address.
