Hello, there must be something I am missing here but Iam kinda new to editing linux network files.

Running: Debian 7
My Network Interfaces File: http://i.imgur.com/YJndC8N.png
Error: http://i.imgur.com/BqGtFme.png

The part in the red box is what I have copied from OVH support and edited the IP's. Anything I am doing wrong or missed etc.?

Thanks

Thought so. Put a # before "This file" to comment it out.

(FYI, a simple Google search for the file and error - "interfaces misplaced option" - reveals tons of almost identical problems, and you could have applied their solution to your file much quicker instead of having to wait two hours for someone to search and answer for you. Self-guided problem solving is an essential skill, and not just in the Linux world.)
