Ubuntu 11.04 Static IP doesn't take
- by mrduclaw
I'm trying to set a static IP address in Ubuntu 11.04. I did a server install. I edited my /etc/network/interfaces file to include:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 10.0.0.100
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 10.0.0.1
When I do a /etc/init.d/networking restart this appears to take. After awhile though, that 10.0.0.100 will turn into something dished out by the DHCP server.
My problem appears to be similar to this: Ubuntu intrepid - static IP networking keeps restarting with DHCP
But I don't have Gnome installed. Is there anything else that's running in the background that could be doing this? And if so, how do I disable it?
