I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS server edition and I am modifying /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules to define my own mappings of ethernet interfaces to MAC addresses; that file is initially generated by rules in /lib/udev/rules.d/75-persistent-net-generator.rules at system installation time (or at the first boot, I actually don't know and it doesn't matter here).
How can I be sure that my edit
F18: The ifcfg-rh plugin in NetworkManager is supposed to pick up the persistent hostname from the traditional settings file: /etc/sysconfig/network.
I have three network cards in my CentOS 6 machine. I have removed the /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules file, rebooted, and allowed the file to get recreated.My file comes up w... [by foxyguitarman]
An interface was added to this Fedora Core 17 system long after installation and it got a weird name and it's driving me insane. A new naming convention was introduced in FC 15.
The official rules for changing its name are described here: RedHat Consistent Network Device Naming Notes
However, MY system doesn't appear to follow the rules!
When installing ubuntu server 13.04 and got to network setup, the installer gave me options of iface p9p1 and p10p1 rather than the usual eth0, eth1. I picked one and proceeded onwards without difficulty thinking that I could change the names afterwards in the 70-persistent-net.rules file. But that file is completely empty???
Question: Where is the config file to set fixed IP in Fedora 11?
I have some machienes in a classroom which I want to be able to clone. Therefore I "restore" from a partition (which is not cloned) the files:
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 and /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-wlan0 and /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
I was able to clone a Ubuntu 10.04 in Cloud.
I want to setup a bridge in XenServer with a name other than xenbr0 , for example cloud0.
I edited those files and their contenent so they can handle a bridged connection:
/etc/xensource-inventory
CURRENT_INTERFACES='cloud0'
MANAGEMENT_INTERFACE='cloud0'
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-xenbr0 to ifcfg-cloud0
DEVICE="cloud0"
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
Do you bay any chance have an ifcfg-p#p#? Where # is replaced with a number. If so that is your NIC, RedHat cahnged the caming convention for NICs.
