hello

my server has running fine in about a month, and becuase my payment was rejected by my bank for some reason, then my isp closed for the net, and i payed and everything was good to go, but then my server was makeing some trouble with my eth1 ( it had removed the ip, so i typed: ifconfig eth1 85.27.151.228) thats my server ip and it is static, so it doesn't change.
and I could visit my sites and so on.. but then i was told that ppl couldn't see the sites that i am hosting or my own sites..
and i thinks its something with my dns services..
in /etc/resolve.conf there is this:

nameserver 194.255.56.78
nameserver 83.136.89.6
nameserver 83.136.89.4


the two last one is my isp dns server..

i have tryed reloading the named services in 85.27.151.228:2222 admin panel.. but it didn't work..

so what is my next step ?

btw. i can't ping http://google.com or any other site for that matter.
when i try to ping 194.255.56.78
i get this:
ping 194.255.56.78
connect: Network is unreachable

Hello,

How do you access then your server? Is it a VPS or a dedicated server? If the last, I suppose, you added IP with wrong netmask. So try and restart networking. You did not mention your system type, so I hesitate to give you any direct commands to run in shell.

It didn't help, but is it possiable that i can choose another dns server as i please ? or do i have to use my isp's and the one that i don't what is for ?


edit:
i just tryed to remove that ip from resolve.conf that i don't know what is and why its there. and then restartet networking.. but it didn't help..

You can use google's reverse DNS:

nameserver 8.8.8.8
nameserver 8.8.4.4

or any other. But it should influence on your sites accessibility.

What if you do
Code: 
traceroute -I 8.8.8.8
?

Then use this:

Code: 
/etc/init.d/networking restart

Please update us with results. You can use http://host-tracker.com/ to check, whether your sites are world accessible.

Is apache running and listening all IPs? Are you using any firewall that blocks your ports?

Your IP is not reachable. ping 85.27.151.228 fails.

Will you post here or send me a PM with result for:

Code: 
netstat -rn
ifconfig
 
OK, as I supposed, you've got completely wrong netmask. You need to fix netmask.

Will you show

Code: 
cat /etc/network/interfaces

?

Are you sure, that neither any router, nor switch is used in your home/office between server and your ISP?

If none, you might want to try and delete dhcplease file.

/var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient.leases
/var/run/dhclient.eth1.leases

and restart networking. If it fail, you should contact your ISP.

i am getting: bash: /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient.leases: Permission denied
when i try to delete it

what should i say to my isp ?
 
Code: 
lsattr /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient.leases
?

Say, that you get wrong netmask with DHCP offer and none gateway is set.

okay i will try that.. its just that they don't have open in weekends.. :(
 
Of course, you can try and reboot your server, at least. Or try to re-fresh DHCP leases and re-send DHCP requests.

P.S. If your server can't get access in internet, how do you connect then?
