Question
FreeBSD Droplet Cannot Connect to the Internet
I am running FreeBSD 10.2.
I spun the Droplet, accessed it via ssh, and did the following:
1) cd /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/portmaster/ ; sudo make install clean
2) sudo portmaster -a
3) cd /usr/ports/net/svnup ; sudo make install clean
4) sudo svnup release
5) sudo freebsd-update fetch install
6) sudo reboot
Then, it was not responding to pings, and I could not access it via ssh (additionally, it had no ip address.)
Next, support said I needed to run the following due to a DigitalOcean FreeBSD Provisioning Bug (in Single User Mode):
ln -s /etc/rc.digitalocean.d/[dropletNumber].conf /etc/rc.digitalocean.d/droplet.conf
Now vtnet0 has an ip address, but I have no Internet access, as shown by:
ping 8.8.8.8
no route to host
At this point support said to ask the community.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Regards, Brandon
