thanks
Hi,
it seems to me that the problem you have is perfectly normal. If you
setup a interface with netmask /32 (255.255.255.255), there are NO
reachable hosts in your LAN, so when ifupdown tries to add the route,
it falis.
Your network and broadcast addresses are wrong too! Please, read interfaces(5)!
ipconfig can add your default gateway, because you're adding a static
route to it beforehand. I would guess that it could be a /24 network,
but you should check with your local admin.
If it were a /24 network, this is how you should configure it:
iface eth0 inet static
address 81.169.168.202
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 81.169.168.0
broadcast 81.169.168.255
gateway 81.169.168.1
As it is not a bug in the software, I'm closing this bug now. Please
reopen if neccesary.
