ping to www

[rallysquirrel]

I can't ping the outside world through ssh. I can ping the FN server and once logged in with ssh, I can ping other workstations.
What simple thing am I missing. Using 8.0.03rc2.

Finally fixed using this tutorial http://forums.freenas.org/archive/index.php/t-1841.html
Since the problem is with routes, I ssh'ed into FN and issued the following command

nas# route add default 192.168.1.1 and this fixed it.

Sounds like you never setup your route (under networking). Sounds like you can access hosts on your localnetwork but nothing else. I'd add a default route and see if that solves the problem.

network summary

This is what I have under network summary:

Name IPv4 Address
em0 192.168.1.33/2

Nameserver
No nameserver defined

Default route
192.168.1.1

are you trying to ping by name or by IP? if it's by name, you would need to have nameservers defined first.

I was pinging by name and defining the nameserver to my routers IP address fixed it. Thanks. I figured it was something easy. Now i'm just getting a "host is down" message for the server i'm trying to connect to. All others work.

Thanks louisk.

argh

i'm still getting the error on freenas "[Errno 61] Failed to connect: (60, 'timed out') -1@news.newshosting.com:443" also cannot connect to the same address using ssh, BUT
I can connect with a workstation saying "Connection Successfull!".
I feel it's still an issue with freenas and not SABnzbd, since SABnzbd working on the workstation works without an issue and has exactly the same settings.

I have the same issues. This is suppose to be fixed in 8.0.3 p1. Found the info on IRC.

Thanks metroplex. I just upgraded to 8.0.3release aka 8.0.2 p5.

Exact error while trying to ssh. Looks like it finds the server but won't connect.

UPDATE: 8.0.2 p6 (FreeNAS-8.0.4-BETA1-x64 (10038) still doesn't work.

 

[metroplex009]

thats weird i upgraded to FreeNAS-8.0.3-RELEASE-p1-x64 (9591) and all is working well.

 

[rallysquirrel]

I can't figure this out. I can't ping out to www either by IP address or by name, but am able to ping inside the network.
This is what I have under Network Summary

Name IPv4 Address
em0 192.168.1.33/2
Nameserver
192.168.1.1
Default route
192.168.1.1

I don't know if it's a typo or not, but having a network of /2 is probably not what you want. I'm guessing you should change that to /24.
