I just finished installing Ubuntu server 9.4 for my home network and I've already hit a roadblock.
I'm fairly new to Linux, but I thought that this would be a good learning tool. So please bare with my stupidity.
I've been following this how to
http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu-home-fileserver and all has gone pretty well until I tried to set the ip to a static ip (Top of page 3 on the how to) I am trying to locate the directory /etc/network/interfaces when I try to access it it tells me permission denied and when I try to CD to it it says it "Not a directory".
Also, when I PWD it says I'm in /root and when I ls and li (installed limo) nothing shows up. When I ls/li /etc a list show up including "networks" but when I li/ls /etc/networks nothing shows up.
I know that this might be a pretty far above my head, but I'm just doing this to learn. I don't need it to work any time soon.
As always thanks for your help.
I couldn't find any, but if there is a thread that solves this problem could you please post a link an delete this one.
