Thanks, for packages I found synaptic that is based on gtk. I find even if I sudo start it I am not certain it fully installs. But minor as once I know the name of a package I can apt-get install.

Another of my bigot mindsets is I use tcsh and not default bash shells. I was doing unixes for years before linux. tcsh was common between them. In early linux bash was just another shell.

I also have always used static ip. I let windows boxes and appliances now dhcp sometimes. But I think in static. In my early days systems were allways numbers.

So how do static u13.10. this seems the answer. the direct simple answer is often hard to find.

If you are using DHCP for your primary network card which is usually eth0, you will see the following lines;

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

As you can see, it’s using DHCP right now. We are going to change dhcp to static, and then there are a number of options that should add and here is the example and you can change these settings according to your network settings.

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.100
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.1.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255
gateway 192.168.1.1

Restart the neworking service using the following command;

sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart

# if ERROR Calling a sysvinit script on a system using upstart isn't supported.
# sudo service networking restart

and it is done… no it does not work. hmmmm.. do I need reboot or do I need ???? route and ip commands.

working.....
