http://ubuntuforums.org – I set-up my ubuntu-server 11.10 out of the box and changed the interfaces settings to # The primary network interface auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.0.100 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 192.168.0.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255 gateway 192.168.0.1 However, I kept getting Write failed: Broken pipe issues. It worked for about 30s and than it broke. Moving it back to the original settings iface eth0 inet dhcp resolved the issue and I can ssh into my server and the sessions last until I close them. Unfortunately, it is far from (Hardware)

[SOLVED] Server Can ONly Access Local Network with Static IP 34 weeks 2 days ago

Losing static IP address 2 years 27 weeks ago

I have an Ubuntu Server 10.04.1 that I have given a static IP address. Every six hours or so I will lose connectivity to it and when I type ifconfig to look at the network information, it has been given an address via dhcp. If I run the /etc/init.d/networking restart command the IP address goes back to my static address and things are fine for another 6 hours or so.

[ubuntu] 2 NICs with same MAC address problem 3 years 16 weeks ago

Hi All,

I have 2 NICs in my U9.04 Server box (eth0, eth1). After I added 2 virtual interfaces for each physical interface (eth0:1,eth0:2,eth1:1,eth1:2), the MAC addresses of all the interfaces have changed to that of eth0. Because eth1 was configured to be on my local network, I can't access the box remotely anymore.
