I am seeing some strange behavior on a debian etch stable computer
that I just installed using the new debian 4.0 r1 disc. I have the static address set in /etc/network/interfaces for
eth0 but then when I ran ifconfig it said it was eth9 and it was using the dchp
address from the server not my static address. So I added eth9 to the
/etc/network/interfaces for the static address I wanted and when I rebooted and
did an ifconfig it said it was using eth10 and the dchp address. Why is the Ethernet
changing? What can I do so I can keep a satic address. I have the address I
want in the host file also. Any help would be appreciated, Michael Kerwin |
