Public bug reported: I upgraded from Ubuntu 8.04 couple of days ago. I had a ethernet connection with static IP address. Here is my /etc/network/interfaces look like (it has been like this since ever)
auto lo iface lo inet loopback iface eth1 inet static address 192.168.254.202 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.254.254 auto eth1 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.2.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 auto eth0 I will follow eth1 in this report. I however have a DHCP server running as well that assigns ip addresses between 192.168.254.1 to 192.168.254.199 Upon upgrade to 8.10 I noticed that the network settings were changed to DHCP and eth1 got an IP from the range. I configured NetworkManager for static but no luck. Did /etc/init.d/networking stop/start and it got static. Reboot overwritten the settings. Had to do /etc/init.d/networking stop/start/restart to get it work. Not sure what other hardware/software information is required. ** Affects: network-manager-applet (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Network settings gets overwritten upon reboot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/277691 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
