What about network-mangler? If you have it, remove it. Is this a laptop? If not, you don't need allow-hotplug. Try this instead: auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.33.52 netmask 255.255.255.192 network 192.168.33.0 broadcast 192.168.33.63 gateway 192.168.33.9 # dns-* options are implemented blah blah... dns-nameservers 212.23.3.100 212.23.6.100 dns-search HML - -- Ron Johnson, Jr. Jefferson LA USA "Kittens give Morbo gas.
