$ /etc/init.d/interfaces

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

I am new to Ubuntu, and wants to fix the problem, any help would be appreciable.

Thank you

Hi,

You have to properly edit /etc/network/interfaces file in Ubuntu to connect to external world

Here are few links which may help you
https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverg...iguration.html
http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting...terfaces-file/

It seems you haven't configure network interface. Configure your network and interface.


or you can configure network through graphical tool.

Hope this help

Network does not seem to be configured. Either you can directly edit the files, or you can assign valid network information like ip address through network manager. You can find the network manager icon in the system tray. You can right and edit the connections and assign the address and other information.

Dear all,

Thanks to u all but still I am not able to fix the problem, I have edited accordingly and sending you the results of my file.

$ sudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces/

#auto lo
#iface lo inet loopback
auto etho0
iface eth0 inet static
address 172.16.8.98
netmask 255.255.254.0
gateway 172.16.8.1
broadcast 172.16.8.255

I have commented loopback files....

$ sudo gedit /etc/resolv.conf
#Generated by NetworkManager
nameserver 202.41.10.31
nameserver 202.41.10.32

$ sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart

Help me gurus...

Thank you
Khushwant

after editing file what is the output of ifconfig command

did you stop network manager service?
stop network-manager and try to connect.

Thanks for your help, here are the output ...which I am getting

$ sudo ifconfig

$ /etc/init.d/network-manager stop

Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8)
utility, e.g. service network-manager stop

Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an
Upstart job, you may also use the stop(8) utility, e.g. stop network-manager


$ /etc/init.d/networking restart

You have got the IP address for your network interface. Have you set it up manually or is it through DHCP? And how do you connect to internet using windows?
And you seem to be on internet using Ubuntu already. Is this the same machine you were facing issues?

Hi Chatainya,

I am connected through LAN in windows and ubuntu too. Earlier I have fedoracore 12 and network was fine but one day unfortunately my machine get turned off due to empty powerbackup. So afterward the network gone on FC12 and I installed Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. It was observed then the network is not working with Ubuntu 10.04 also. The machine is same.

I have got it manually instead of DHCP. But now i did not c network manager sign at panel near sound and chat, which was there earlier when I set IPv4 settings manually.

help to sort the problem. I have installed Realtek semiconductor device again but the problem is still there.

Thank you
Khushwant

Right Click on the top panel and add Notification Area.
See if the Network Icon is getting displayed there.
You can right click on that icon and check for the settings Else you acn add the connection.
Ubuntu 10.04 should be able to automatically detect your connection.
