network problem

[Pierre Frenkiel <pierre.frenkiel@gmail.com>]

hi,
I have the following problem on my laptop.
my /etc/network/interfaces file contains:
   auto enp0s1
   iface enp0s1  inet static
   address 192.168.1.10
   netmask 255.255.255.0
   gateway 192.168.1.1

   but after boot, ifconfig gives

   address 192.168.0.163
   netmask 255.255.255.0
   gateway 192.168.1.1

   Then, networking works i.e. I can reach Internet, but of course
   not my desktop and other devices 192.168.1.xx

   I looked on the entire disk to find where this address 192.168.0.163
   is hidden, but I was unable to find it !

   rather strange, isn't it?

best regards,
