thanks Steve, but: > - configure your eth0 interface via /etc/network/interfaces instead of through NetworkManager
This method makes my nis working. But only if I setup a dynamic host configuration (iface eth0 inet dhcp), the machine works well. But I want to have a static IP configuration. And this is the reason why I changes to use the network-manager since Ubuntu 11.10, because static IP configuration in /etc/network/interfaces causes different other problems: 1. There is a response delay of all network packages, i.e. after I did a ping command, I have to wait about 5 minutes get get the first response. Ping response timespan seems to be OK (~0.1ms) . Internet browsing gets also very slow because of a response delay of about 5 seconds. Maybe this is a dns problem, because this only happens, if I request an internet address which I am not visited immediatly before?? 2. boot time takes minimum twice as long. 3. If I create a client.conf file under /etc/cups/, boot time takes much much longer. > - edit /etc/init/ypbind.conf locally, to replace 'static-network-up' with > 'net-device-up IFACE=eth0'. sorry no success. I tried it on a virgin Ubuntu installation too (with static IP). The result is the same (see #19).
