Network problem after Update Pack?

Postby Narann on Tue Apr 17, 2012 3:14 am

Hi all, I just encounter a problem and would like to share my solution.

After the update, I was unable to automatic connect to the network. The problem was in the interfaces config file:

Code: Select all
$ cat /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

# The primary network interface
allow-hotplug eth0
#NetworkManager#iface eth0 inet dhcp


The problem was just the word #NetworkManager# word. Remove it, reboot and everything should work:

Code: Select all
$ cat /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

# The primary network interface
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp


Hope this help. :)
