I did just today download an install Ubuntu on my laptop. a few days
ago the laptop worked fine, then it got sick with one of those lovely
(sarcastic) PC viruses. I used my stable + good Fedora 7 deskside system
to download Ubuntu 7.10, burned a cdrom and installed Ubuntu.
I am have been allocated 8 IP addresses by my DSL providor. I setup the
network on the laptop just the same as it was when running MS Windows.
same IP address, DNS, broadcast, netmast, etc -- well Ubuntu is not
able to connect to any computer other than my Fedora 7 system since they
are on the same network.
I would be grateful for suggestions on what is different with
the networking of Fedora 7 and Ubunto 7.10? And how to configure
Ubuntu correctly. Debian/Ubuntu is brand new to me. The interface is
configured UP, it is eth0. Both my Fedora system and the Ubuntu one
use the same IP address for the default gateway.
I would be glad to get into the specifics in private email
should someone offer assistance.
Thanks in advance!
