Public bug reported:
This appears to be Feisty specific.
I have looked for a solution, using Google.
I have tried to modify /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf as shown:-
## ORIGINAL VERSION
#prepend domain-name-servers 127.0.0.1;
#request subnet-mask, broadcast-address, time-offset, routers,
domain-name, domain-name-servers, host-name,
netbios-name-servers, netbios-scope;
## MODIFIED VERSION
prepend domain-name-servers 203.87.88.1 203.87.88.2;
request subnet-mask, broadcast-address, time-offset, routers,
domain-name, host-name,
netbios-name-servers, netbios-scope;
and tried it with and without resolv.conf and also tried to modify
/etc/network/interfaces:-
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth1
iface eth1 inet static
address 192.168.0.10
netmask 255.255.255.0
auto ath0
iface ath0 inet dhcp
dns-nameservers 203.87.88.1 203.87.88.2
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
iface eth0 inet dhcp
auto eth0
Nothing works
I should be able to set up a static network as I desire using
System>Administration>Network as I used to be able to in all the
releases before Feisty and if I cannot then I as a user with beginner to
average knowledge be able to find a solution.
I cannot!
It has to be a bug and a workaround added to the documentation.
