hello all,

i'm trying to change a static ip assigned to a debian VM. I modified the /etc/network/interfaces file but my debian doesn't seem to like the new settings

currently the machine's ip is set to 192.168.1.136 and i want the machine's ip to be set to 192.168.1.8

here's my modified /etc/network/interfaces :

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

allow-hotplug eth0

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.8
gateway 192.168.1.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
