Hello debianers! For some reason I can no longer ping localhost:
ping -c 3 localhost PING localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data. --- localhost.localdomain ping statistics --- 3 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 2000ms I saw that when I tried to configure my printer using the web interface: http://localhost:631/admin If I use as root: ifconfig lo, I can ping localhost. But the next time I reboot I cannot ping localhost: I have again to become root and use ifcong. So, my question: how do I save the command ifconfig lo in some place so that I don't have to redo the same procedure? Is there a script or a config file? This is the content of my /etc/network/interfaces file: ### etherconf DEBCONF AREA. DO NOT EDIT THIS AREA OR INSERT TEXT BEFORE IT. auto lo eth1 eth2 iface lo inet loopback ### END OF DEBCONF AREA. PLACE YOUR EDITS BELOW; THEY WILL BE PRESERVED. I'm sure that there should be a trick, but which one? I swear that I have tried to RTFM! -- ***************** Bruno Delalleau Debian Sarge user Linux since 1998 ***************** -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
