We have servers which are all automatically configured by adding simple static entries to /etc/network/interfaces. Upon reboot, it's network reachable within about ten seconds while the monitor is hung saying, "Waiting 60 more seconds for network configuration..." - but it is pingable and accepting ssh connections with no problems.
Commenting out the sleep stanzas worked here also, but it would be far better if the test checked properly and didn't start sleeping when everything was up. Either that or maybe something in /etc/default to tell it not to check period, I will maintain my own interfaces file. Here's an example interfaces file, I think this is all syntactically correct?: root@19r8s12:/etc# cat /etc/network/interfaces # This file describes the network interfaces available on your system # and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5). # The loopback network interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback # The primary network interface auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.1.181 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 192.168.1.0 broadcast 192.168.1.255 gateway 192.168.1.1 root@19r8s12:/etc# -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/847782 Title: installer writes a permanent ethernet entry in interfaces file To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/netcfg/+bug/847782/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
