Ubuntu static IP address assignment error
I'm trying to assign a static IP to my ubuntu box (8.10). Here are the steps to this point:
cat etc/network/interfaces #the loopback network interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback #the primary network interface iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.1.102 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.1.1 root@chach:/etc# /etc/init.d/networking restart * Reconfiguring network interfaces... * Stopping the Firestarter firewall... ...done. * Starting the Firestarter firewall... ...done. RTNETLINK answers: No such process SIOCDELRT: No such process I'm not sure what these errors are or how to get around them. Can anyone point me in the right direction? TIA! |

Worked like a charm! Many thanks......
