Greetings; I just cloned my debian penguin, changed the ip-addresses and host names and booted the clone. Neither my ctc0 link or the eth0 link came up.
After much cursing and gnashing of teeth and scratching of head I had a hunch and changed the "physical" addresses of the links to be the same as in the donor system and booted yet again. And they came up perfectly! (Another big reason for running under VM!) My query is, where are these addresses hidden so I can change them in my next clone? Or, alternatively, how can I make linux re-sense and re-configure at boot time so I don't have to mess with it? It appears to do this for dasd. TIA! Dennis -- Dennis G.
