As said by Tixy, disable anything but 'lo', for example by "commenting out" (a.k.a. putting an '#' in front of each line). Your interfaces should look like this: ,----[ /etc/network/interfaces ] | # This file describes the network interfaces available on your system | # and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5). | | # The loopback network interface | auto lo | iface lo inet loopback | | #auto eth1 | #iface eth1 inet dhcp `---- Regards, Andrei -- Offtopic discussions among Debian users and developers: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/d-community-offtopic
