Italian language, Swiss Italian location, Swiss Frech Keyboard,

I was reading the thread that taffit has started tonight... Maybe related?
Anyway, I have a 10.164.88.0/23 segment given by the Telephon provider. All the
schools are inside this single large 10.0.0.0 network. I have a
dchp/dns running at 10.164.88.2, gateway 10.164.88.1. DHCP
passes also a secundary dns outside the /23 net (10.164.6.2)
For the NETINSTALL I leave the automatic preseed work (thus dchp).
Then after reboot I change the subnet with the provided script.
I also have a apt-cacher-ng which is served by a public IP, not in the
10.* lan but I didn't use it and I cannot figure out how it could be
disturbing.
I don't see any relevant point here.
Regards
Giorgio
