Hello everyone,
My problem is that I cannot get the ethernet card on the local network to get
up. I'm new to debian after many years of red-hat/fedora. The machine: HP
Compaq Elite 8300 SFF (Core i5). The system: debian buster (testing)
Some information:
[ben@til ~]$ systemctl status networking.service
networking.service - Raise network interfaces

The eno1 is onboard, connected to adsl and works fine. If I restart the network
with 'systemctl restart networking', or, './etc/init.d/networking restart', the
network goes down and fails.
The enp3s0 is connected to a switch on a local network which has two other
fedora computers on it. With a previous debian box all I did to have it work on
this network was write the following config, reboot, and it worked. I was
guided by https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-reference/ch05. That old
box went bung, so I acquired the current one and tried the same config, with
the appropriate name changes. That config is in /etc/interfaces (which I
created on this machine):
-------start config-----
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
source /etc/network/interfaces.d/*
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# The primary network interface
allow-hotplug eno1
iface eno1 inet dhcp
# This is an autoconfigured IPv6 interface
iface eno1 inet6 auto
# local net
allow-hotplug enp3s0
iface enp3s0 inet static
address 192.168.0.3
netmask 255.255.255.0
-----------end config-----------
There is no /etc/network/interfaces.d/ on this machine. And this particular
ethernet card is the same one that worked in previous debian box.
Here are the commands I've used, but none has succeeded in getting the card up,
though the ip address was assigned and shown in the 'ip addr' output. There
were no error messages other than "FAILED" in the systemctl status output.
ip addr add 192.168.0.3 dev enp3s0
ip addr add 192.168.0.3/24 dev enp3s0
ip link set enp3s0 up
/etc/init.d/networking restart
I was hoping for some help to let me know what I need to do to get this
ethernet working?
