There's a lot of things which aren't clear to me. Let's recap the following for clarity: You mention there are two, wired nics in your box, only one is wired up (I think ifconfig tells you if an interface has a layer 1 link or not, but I don't recall what to look for in the output). Can you confirm if it's eth0 or eth1 that is the one which is supposed to be physically wired up? Your interfaces file is primed to provide an address automatically to eth0 via DHCP when activated. There is no "auto" line, so it is not configured to automatically activate on bootup. Do you intend this machine to get it's IP address automatically, or for the address to be statically assigned? > grep -rl 'eth[01]' /etc |grep -v 'etc/mail\|~$' > /etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf > /etc/samba/smb.conf.ucf-dist > /etc/samba/smb.conf > /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules > /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf > /etc/avahi/avahi-daemon.conf > /etc/network/interfaces.bak-1 > /etc/network/interfaces-autoconfigged-11.10.06_152210 > /etc/network/interfaces_hp-static_2 > /etc/network/interfaces.bak-0 > /etc/network/interfaces_hp-static > /etc/network/run/ifstate > /etc/network/interfaces Alright, the major file I'd be curious to see is /etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf then. - - Jesse -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
