Re: Problems with Ethernet network connection
From what you've posted, to me it looks like the eth0 port is not up. I don't know if you're looking for a temporary fix or a permanent one, so I'll give you both:
temporary
sudo ifconfig eth0 up
sudo dhclient eth0
This will bring "up" eth0, dhclient will request an IP address from your server; you can varify it worked by running the ifconfig -a command again. This time you should see an IP address assigned to eth0.
If you don't want to do this every time you boot up, you need to add another "stanza" to you /etc/network/interfaces file. To read about it -> man interfaces
I'll assume you're looking for dhcp, add this:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
This stanza will configure your eth0 card to come up at boot and request an IP address from the dhcp server.
temporary
sudo ifconfig eth0 up
sudo dhclient eth0
This will bring "up" eth0, dhclient will request an IP address from your server; you can varify it worked by running the ifconfig -a command again. This time you should see an IP address assigned to eth0.
