Hi all. Thank you for the replies. On my first email, I say I didn' really checked Debian - and I know Canonical changes a lot of things for Ubuntu. Will install Debian.
I use Gentoo Linux and I'm using Network-Manager - for the CLI I sometimes use nmtui or nmcli. I just pointed out because a new Linux user will almost definitely use Ubuntu or a friendly distribution - I'm not saying he or she won't change in the future, but for learning, Ubuntu is one of the best - alongside Fedora, for example - this is just my opinion. These distros no longer use the /etc/network/interfaces file and I'm guessing for the foreseeable future, others probably will follow along. For someone starting to learn Linux (probably won't go for the LPIC-1 exam just yet) now, it will never know that file has existed - unless he or she will be curious and check other distributions. Probably this is the normal way - will have to try the base distros and be proficient in more than one . Michael, I agree with you - >>>> To study for LPI sometimes mean to also have a look on other distributions to get an overall view. >>>> Thank you all for the replies. LPIC must be reviewed to stay relevant to the times.
