May 20, 201115 yr This is all that I did and now I can't get my unraid box up and running ... In the web interface I told the unraid to spin down the disks and then I powered down the system moved it phyically to a new location and plugged in the network cord and the power cord ... the box boots up and gets logged in all the way and I can log into the box locally but the shares and the web interface are not there... If I try to ping the unraid box I get time outs ... and if I try to ping from the unraid box to my router I'm told that the host is unreachable ... The ip address that the unraid box is being set by my dhcp server but it's not showing up in the " To access it put this address in your browser: http://:89" but there is no ip ... what is going on ? Is my data safe? How can I fix this?
May 20, 201115 yr sounds like your network cable is not plugged in (or the cable bad) port 89 is completely non-standard... Are you sure an IP address is being negotiated? I doubt it is.
May 20, 201115 yr Author the cable is good ... I know that the ip is being set correctly because the network boot pxe shows up on reboot
May 20, 201115 yr what do you get when you type: net lookup google.com what do you see when you type: ifconfig eth0 what do you see when you type: ethtool eth0

May 20, 201115 yr You missed a space. Not netlookup but net lookup. It isn't getting an IP address but it does have link. Looks like it's plugged into something that isn't talking to the rest of the world. You would see that if you plugged your unRAID box into a router that had power but wasn't on the net. How is this new network outlet connected to your network vs. the location you were using previously? Have you used this same outlet for other computers?
May 20, 201115 yr My motherboard has 2 network jacks. When I moved my server I initially plugged the network cable into the wrong jack and I couldn't see my server on the network. I figured out what I did, moved the cable and it was back.
May 20, 201115 yr Makes sense. unRAID only ever uses the first NIC it finds. Please edit the OP to included [sOLVED] in the title.
May 20, 201115 yr Author this is very weird ... I move the server back to where it was and it started working again and at the time of the issues I was plugged into the same switch with my laptop
May 20, 201115 yr Oops, sorry, I thought S1DIMMER was the OP and the problem had been solved. Are you using a NIC built in to your motherboard, or a PCI/PCIe one? Does your NIC have more than one ethernet port? If so, try the other one. You've already said the cable was good, so is there anything else you can think of that is different between the server's current position and where you want to move it? Maybe the ethernet cable was making a bad connection? Did you try just unplugging and replugging it?
May 20, 201115 yr Author yep I tried un-plugging it ... no change it's an onboard nic card There really isn't anything different from it's current location and the place that I was setting it up at
