[Bug 303068] Re: Static IP ethernet network setting is lost after reboot
I'm afraid I've ditched Ubuntu and gone back to Fedora 9. Fedora 9 network configuration works fine and, although the VPN client is not quite as easy to use as that on the Ubuntu gnome network-manager it always works with eth0 configured to a static address. On a differeet issue, cron also always works on Fedora 9 which it doesn't on Ubuntu 8.04/8.10 -- Static IP ethernet network setting is lost after reboot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/303068 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 303068] Re: Static IP ethernet network setting is lost after reboot
I have exactly the same problem. I have created a separate connection, other than auto eth0. If I select this manually it is fine but on a reboot the dhcp auto eth0 is connected as default. I want to know how to configure the network settings so that my manually created connection is the default and not auto eth0. It is not acceptable to have to manually select the interface. Note: Martin Mai's last comment (2009-01-14) says that this is fixed in the final release of network-manager 0.7 but that this is not shipping with release 8.10. I don't want to have to upgrade to solve this issue. -- Static IP ethernet network setting is lost after reboot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/303068 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Re: [Bug 318437] Re: gnome network manager - setting static ip
Hi Many thanks for that. I created a new network connection (called comet) and set a static Ip address for that. I can connect to comet and it works fine: the static IP is saved and my VPN client connects to my work VPN. However, when I reboot the machine it always starts up connected to eth0. I intend to put this machine in the loft and never connect to it as a desktop machine. How can I get the default interface to be comet when I reboot? Thanks in advance for your help.

This should be in the documentation, if not then you have a valid documentation bug. For Network Manager, this is not a bug but rather it is intentional. To save your changes, you will need to give the connection a name that does not begin with Auto. Home, Ethernet, Main Connection are all valid names that can have changes saved. You will still see 'Auto eth0' in Network Manager, that won't go away, but you can choose to connect to the other one instead. Please try to set a static IP address again, but this time before saving change the name of the network, and let us know if that works.
