Binary package hint: ubuntu-docs
I'm running a server (alas, not installed as such) on 8.04.3. I just
needed to change its network configuration from DHCP to a static
address. I found this page, and tried to follow it:
https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/network-configuration.html
I should have known better after so many years, but I both forgot, and
didn't read, that I needed to add the appropriate 'auto ethX' line to go
with my static configuration.
The box of configuration text
- auto eth0
- iface eth0 inet dhcp
+ auto eth0
+ iface eth0 inet dhcp
looks, at first glance, like it only applied to DHCP configurations. The
`auto eth0` line should be duplicated at the top of the next box, as
well, to make it clear that it applies to static configurations as well.
