Can't connect to network - /etc/networking/options deprecated


I'm using my nix box as a proxy server. Just today I found I can no longer get it to connect to the network. I tried restarting /etc/init.d/networking and when I did I got the message: * /etc/network/options is deprecated. Can someone explain to me what this means and if this is the reason I no longer can see my network? If so, how do I fix the problem.

It's deprecated, however its exsitence will not affect your network connection.

Networking is in most cases configured in Debian via two configuration files, /etc/network/interfaces and /etc/resolv.conf. Check that these files look like they should. You can also check with ifconfig that your network interfaces have been detected.
