how to edit and save this file using Vim-noX. (connected via putty) I have the file loaded up and Ive inputed the needed data for my static IP, but I cant for the life of me figure out how to close and save my settings. At the bottom of the command line I have "INSERT" which toggles with "REPLACE" and I just cant figure this out.

I have a Dell PowerEdge SC430, Squeeze 6.0.2 box, Broadcom NetXtreme NIC which works fine DHCP. The network-manager package is not installed. I have now reconfigured /etc/network/interfaces for a static IP:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.2

I have been trying to set up Ubuntu server 10.04-2 and am a couple issues.
One issue is that the network interfaces aren't starting properly. I have to start them manually. I've tried to edit the /etc/network/interfaces with the following.
Code:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static

I'm building up a server based on 8.04 LTS. It's using OpenVZ, and as part of that it creates a virtual network interface venet0. I add a stanza to /etc/network/interfaces that looks like this:
Code:
allow-hotplug venet0
iface venet0 inet static
address 10.53.35.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
[Code].....
Looking further, I note that /etc/init.d/networking is not symlinked into anything other than the rcS.d directory. It's been a while since I've been tinkering at this level, but I understand that there should be a symlink from rc2.d/Sxxnetworking into ../etc/init.d/networking. So I wonder where eth0 is getting configured.
Last night I created a fresh install of Ubuntu Server 10.10. I was working through a tutorial to set up a development server for home use, and everything worked perfectly. I was able to install OpenSSH, Apache, MySQL, and PHP (and Vim) with no problems. I was also able to use "ifconfig" to determine the network address of the server and I was able to view web pages on the server from another machine on my home network, using a browser. So, everything was "peachy". [By the way: The server is connected to the router using a CAT5 cable. This is a WIRED connection] I shut the Ubuntu server down at the end of the night and, now that I have rebooted this morning, I have apparently lost the network interface. I cannot ping anything from the server. If I run ifconfig, only the "lo" configuration is listed, with the 127.0.0.1 address.

I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 and I recently changed certain settings of my router. After that ubuntu isnt able to obtain IP address from this wifi network. I've tried to connect with win 7 and OS X and both of the OSes are able to connect to the same wifi network. I tried to connect ubuntu to another wifi network at school and it connected successfully.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm using Ubuntu 9.10 and for a while I had no problems connecting to the internet through the wireless network. But recently, my wireless connection started disconnecting regularly. Following an advice I found online, I installed linux-backports-modules-karmic, but after a reboot the wireless device stopped working altogether - it had lost its driver. Since then I managed to associate the device with Broadcom's STA driver, which I had been using before. But now, the wireless device cannot connect to the internet anymore. The network manager's output to /var/log/syslog indicates that the device cannot obtain an IP address. When I run code...

View 5 Replies View RelatedThe IP address acquisition problem I reported earlier has returned, and I am stymied. To recap: Ubuntu 9.10 would not obtain an IP address via a wired Ethernet connection. I resolved the problem at the time by configuring eth0 in /etc/network/interfaces:
Code:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
and disabling Network Manager in Preferences > Startup Applications.After a powering down the PC today, the problem has returned. It appears that dhclient cannot obtain an IP address. This is true whether I am connected to the router (a Linksys WRT54G running Tomato), or directly to the DSL modem. When my usually wireless Ubuntu 9.10 laptop is wired to the router, it obtains an address almost instantly. I have made no changes to the network configuration since January. I have tried to keep current on Ubuntu updates.

I have an open WEP wireless internet connection with a security key. KNetworkManager can never obtain an IP address from my wireless router, but I know that the router works because Windows can connect correctly and Ubuntu's NetworkManager can connection correctly. Does anyone know what is happening? KNetworkManager just asks for my security again and again and again after it fails to connect.

On my desktop having a NIC 3Com, connected to the company intranet and correctly working, I have added a second NIC ( Realtek RTL-8139) to connect a second small network ( three devices, instrumentation) using static addressing.The new board seems to be rekognized by Ubuntu, indicating "auto eth1" in the Network connections dialog. When I try to configure the connection, the "Apply" button is always disabled, therefore I cannot activate it. The command lspci shows that the board has been recognized but when i sent the

For my router I need to change Ubuntu server from DHCP to static IP. So to do this I entered: Code: sudo vi /etc/network/interfaces ...and pushed the wrong buttons and exited the session suddenly by mistake. After learning how to use the vi editor I went back but I got a notice that the the last session didn't close properly and that a "swap" file had been created. Anyway, I entered my static IP info, saved the file, and attempted to restart with:
Code: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart Restart failed and I got a notice that I should delete the /etc/network/interfaces.swp file so I did. Tried to restart again and, didn't get the .swp file conflict message this time, but failed again - this time I got the following message:

I am currently trying to set up two network interfaces in my laptop. The wireless connection wlan0 works fine and it's the one that I use to connect the internet. It's in the range of 192.168.0.x/24 (gateway: 192.168.0.1). The wired interface eth0 is connect to another router (gateway: 10.0.0.13 with IPs in the range of 10.0.0.x/24. The router is set up to work as an AP and the 10.0.0.x network will only be used to control a robot, so no internet access will be required in this network. The problem is that when I have both connections up, I can't access the Internet anymore. I can still ping both routers, I can enter both routers configuration pages but I can't connect to the Internet. If I unplug the network cable, Internet gets accessible again.
I'm still a novice in linux and I can't figure out how to fix this. I don't want to get into static ip for the wireless connection since I'm constantly using the laptop in different places. The objective is to use the 10.0.0.x router to have a development platform for the robot that can be used anywhere without having to reconfigure the robot for a new network, which is a real pain.
In detail, the laptop connects via wireless to the network with intenet (192.168.0.x) and also connects via cable to another wireless router(10.0.0.x). The wireless connection of the second router is used to connect to the robot. Since I can ping both routers when they're both connected, I think it may be something related to the ip routes.
