Is the entry really valid?
yes
Something like:
auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 141.209.169.84 gateway 141.209.169.1 broadcast 141.209.169.255 netmask 255.255.255.0
with one more line: network 141.209.169.0
What kind of network card + driver are you using?
Intel Pro/100, driver is e100 (via lsmod)
Does 'rmmod ipv6' help?
ipv6 is not loaded
What's the output of 'ip addr show'?
for eth0 last two line: inet 169.254.123.93/16 scope link eth0 inet 141.209.169/84/24 brd 141.209.169.255 scope global eth0 (the last line is corrct but is not shown by ifconfig eth0)
Does 'ifup -a' change anything?
ifup: interface lo already configured ifup: interface eth0 already configured
I also see problems with CUPS system (for adding a local printer) # /etc/init.d/cupsys start starts the daemon
I can connect to this server using URL: http://localhost:631/ as soon as add a printer is chosen, the server dies!
This is a dual PIII box.
