I've run into an odd problem: on two of my squeeze servers, the
/etc/network/interfaces file fails to set the default gateway on boot.
I can add the gateway manually by issuing "route add default gw
192.168.0.178 eth0" -- it works fine.
This is my /etc/network/interfaces:
# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.0.26
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.0.0
broadcast 192.168.0.255
gateway 192.168.0.178
I cloned this entire operating system, which as you see is on a private
subnet, to another box that is on a public network, and got exactly the
same problem (with a different gateway). I have other machines on the
same networks with the same configuration that don't have this problem.
What could be preventing the default gateway from being set on boot?
Cheers,
David
