Well, suppose I forget the hostname part (Alt-FN shows localhost.localdomain, even if a meaninfull value is in /etc/hostname, and seems to stay that after dhclient).
Was having same problem after upgrading to Intrepid from Hardy. I uncommented (removed the #) the following line from /etc/network/intefaces: iface eth0 inet dhcp Then I renamed /etc/rc2.d/S28NetworkManager to /etc/rc2.d/K72NetworkManager to disable the NetworkManager. After that, Internet works fine again. I suppose the line was commented out of /etc/network/interfaces because NetworkManager should call dhcpclient itself when it is not configured but it does not? Anyway, the bug seems to be with NetworkManager not dhcp3 client. Russel, can you confirm that this workaround works for you? -- dhclient fails to be run during boot of Intrepid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/308647 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to dhcp3 in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
