Unknown Host issue
 
Hello,

I'm having an issue configuring eth0. I'm using ubuntu 8.10 in a virtual machine (VirtualBox). The correct adapter is being used and it has worked in the past. I've tried placing eth0 in dhcp through the GUI and bash, but always get a 169 address or 127.

When I run the following command:

Code:
sudo ifconfig eth0 address xx.xxx.x.xxx
The output is:

Code:
Address: Unknown Host
Any assistance is appreciated.

Thanks.
