Hi All
With F10 if I use DHCP to assign my IP address everything goes OK
I get an IP address and a subnet mask and I get access to the interent
If I try to statically assign the IP address
Example 192.168.1.118 255.255.255.240 (please don’t complain about the
range it’s only an example because I don’t want to give out my public IP
for this server)
Do you have a correct /etc/resolv.conf with a valid nameserver entry?

The network configuration takes it but when I reopen it I see it has
changed my subnet mask to 192.168.1.113
Also I am not getting onto the internet
Ifconfig shows eth0 as 192.168.1.118 255.255.255.255
Bcast 192.168.1.118
It also shows an IPv6 address even though I haven’t enabled IPv6
What is going wrong
I need to statically assign the IP address as this will use a public IP
address
Many thanks
