from your /etc/networks/interfaces, I can see that there is something (funny) renaming your eth1 to eth2 and this will not allow it to work. It is important to know whether eth0 is working fine.Since it is a LAN card, I think you can check whether pinging 192.168.0.254 from the LAN computers will yield results. Right now I cannot guess off-head what is doing the renaming the NiC card from eth1 to eth2 right now but I think I can get some time on it but from your side, you should try to look at the line # [ 11.671418] udevd[441]: renamed network interface eth1 to eth2#. As a question, why do you put your DNS configs in the interface file? Thought that info is supposed to be in the resolv.conf file? yet more, the interface file is still confusing although this cannot stop it from working, but I think the properties of eth0 should be under auto eth0 and those of eth1 should go under auto eth1 not vice versa. -- Kind regards; KTM +256752602550||+256782062708 "Mother of God-Pray for us sinners"
