Hi,
I have a Debian testing. I am experiencing sme problmes with ethernet
cards ip configurations. My /etc/network/interfaces file is:
### etherconf DEBCONF AREA. DO NOT EDIT THIS AREA OR INSERT TEXT BEFORE IT.
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
### END OF DEBCONF AREA. PLACE YOUR EDITS BELOW; THEY WILL BE PRESERVED.
iface eth1 inet static
address 172.18.255.77
netmask 255.255.255.0
iface eth0 inet static
address 172.18.3.51
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 172.18.3.254
auto eth0
auto eth1
but if I run ip addr I get:
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP> mtu 16436 qdisc noqueue

and ip route:

172.18.255.0/24 dev eth1 proto kernel scope link src 172.18.255.77

169.254.0.0/16 dev eth1 proto kernel scope link src 169.254.130.156
default via 172.18.3.254 dev eth0
So where the 169.* addresses can come from?
Most likely from a package called "zeroconf" which messes with the
network configuration in order to make it easy for people to configure
link-local networks. Unfortunately this package can get installed
without the user really noticing (as a recommended package). Unless you
want to use it to configure your own network you can simply uninstall
and purge it. Then your network configuration should be back to normal
after you do an ifdown/ifup on the interfaces.

Florian
