/etc/network/interfaces

[Stephen E. Hargrove]

I have the following /etc/network/interfaces:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
        address 192.168.2.6
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        network 192.168.2.0
        broadcast 192.168.2.255
        gateway 192.168.2.1

At startup, I get the following message:

Configuring network interfaces: /etc/network/interfaces: option without
interface

And, of course, eth0 isn't configured.  Can anyone point out what I'm
missing here?
