Issues with static IP (Ubuntu Server 10.04)
- by letseatfood
I am following this tutorial for setting up a testing server for my web development projects.
When I attempt setting up a static IP address (using the configuration below), I receive the error "ping: unknown host www.google.com" when I attempt using ping.
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.0.100
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.0.0
broadcast 192.168.0.255
gateway 192.168.0.1
Ping works fine when the configuration is:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
I am a novice to server setup and administration.
