Hi guys, I have recently dowloaded 2 servers: The Perfect Server - Ubuntu Hardy Heron (Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Server) and rsyncbackup_etch_1, I have the same problem on both servers: eth0 doesnot show up when I do ifconfig. Only the loopback shows up. I try to start networking with /etc/init.d/networking start, an get this error: Configuring network interfaces...SIOCSIFADDR: no such device eth0: Error while getting interface flags : no such device Failed to bring up eth0. I have peviously downloaded many servers for testing, and never had a problem. I run vmware server console, on XP with a P4 3ghz, 2Gb ram, 160Gb hd freespace, Any help would be great. Thanks madmac
Are you using your computer's built-in NIC, or maybe a WLAN connection, or did you somehow change the NICs in your computer?
Did You choose to keep the identifier ? http://images.howtoforge.com/images/howto_import_vmware_images/7a.png
all the same Using the same computer I always have, NIC still the same built in. Yes I keep Identifier when I launch for the first time each server. Let me delete and re-unzip and try again, will reply back. madmac
well I just dunno well I deleted the whole folder, removed from inventory. Re-unzipped into the same VM folder, and made sure I select "keep" Now it works??????????????? well ya got me? Thanks anyway for the replies guys,If i figure out why , I will post back. madmac
