I followed all steps as you indicated were proper. The problem was during the 
move from my office to our colo facility when I would use the legacy setup 
utility. My bad. 

Now that I know to use the proper script I think I’ll be OK.  Just to clarify 
if I wanted to use the correct shell config script I would kick off 
“/root/network_settings.sh”? 

 

Thanks again for your hard work!

 

Also check your customer service email. I asked a question via your web form 
(https://www.solarspeed.net/contact-form.php) a day or two ago and haven’t 
heard anything back.

Hi Roy,

I'm sorry to say it, but then you didn't follow the usual procedures:

1.) Install from the iso and reboot.

2.) At the login prompt and before login it tells you to login as "root" with 
password "blueonyx".

3.) Once you logged in that way, the interactive setup starts and will guide 
you through the network setup.

You probably bypassed this procedure by logging in as "admin" and then fiddled 
around with legacy tools such as "setup", which is not the supported way of 
doing things.

If you bypass the interactive setup built into BlueOnyx (it gets executed the 
first time you log in as "root"), then all bets are off. This interactive setup 
does a lot more than to configure the network settings, as it also restarts 
services and populates CCE with some important information.

So if you detour from that path, then quite a few things won't work as intended.

It is there for a reason, which is also true for quite a few other system tools 
which rarely get used.
