Invoke: UFicle - Ubuntu problem by Radiowave911 2007-04-26 10:05:39
I have Ubuntu server (latest, updated via apt), and suddenly after a reboot, it will not come up on the network (I shut it down to move it). When I run ifconfig, no interfaces are there (including l0). I can manually bring up an interface with ifconfig, but I cannot get ifup to bring it up - I keep getting the message:

/etc/network/interfaces:19: too few parameters for iface line
ifup: couldn't read interfaces file "/etc/network/interfaces"

I looked over the interfaces file several times, and must be missing something simple. The file is (IP addresses sanitized):

# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
gateway xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
netmask 255.255.255.0
network xxx.xxx.xxx.0
broadcast xxx.xxx.xxx.255

# The secondary network interface
auto eth1
iface eth1 static
address yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy
gateway yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy
netmask 255.255.255.252
network yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy
broadcast yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy

What am I missing? A fresh pair of eyes may be helpful here.

TIA!
