Hello, Thank you for your reply. To your first option I do not have the cloud-init package installed. I don't know if this matters but hostnamectl reports that the virtualization is openvz. To your second option I don't have a dhcpcd.conf file, though I did look for anything dhcp on the system, here are those packages:
ii isc-dhcp-client 4.4.3-P1-2 amd64 DHCP client for automatically obtaining an IP address ii isc-dhcp-common 4.4.3-P1-2 amd64 common manpages relevant to all of the isc-dhcp packages ii wide-dhcpv6-client 20080615-23 amd64 DHCPv6 client for automatic IPv6 hosts configuration You might be on to something though here's what is in /etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf I'm just not sure what options to comment out? /etc/dhcp#grep -v "#" dhclient.conf option rfc3442-classless-static-routes code 121 = array of unsigned integer 8; send host-name = gethostname(); request subnet-mask, broadcast-address, time-offset, routers, domain-name, domain-name-servers, domain-search, host-name, dhcp6.name-servers, dhcp6.domain-search, dhcp6.fqdn, dhcp6.sntp-servers, netbios-name-servers, netbios-scope, interface-mtu, rfc3442-classless-static-routes, ntp-servers; Thanks.
