SO,
 1) what's wrong with ifup,
 2) how to manually add localhost.

try "iface lo inet loopback" (for 127.0.0.1)

sorry, I should have said adding to interfaces

-- yes; but that is broken ("ifup").
Hi, I couldn't keep on yesterday, if you still have the problem...
please send me your /etc/network/interfaces
and...
If you configure everything manually, it works?
meaning ifconfig eth0 up...

-- Thanks a lot; I got it to work fine by a manual reconfigure, and then an apt-dist-upgrade brought in a new version of ifupdown, which fixed things.

The problem was not in my configuration, that had worked for 9 months, it was that apt-get had trashed ifup!

Thanks.
Greg
