I need a static IP in 8.10.
Every time I try to set the static IP on the NIC, using Network settings, it appears to "take." During the same session I can go back and look at the setting, and it's still static with the correct static IP.
However, if in that session I run IFCONFIG, the DHCP-assigned IP displays.
When I reboot or logout/login, it reverts back to DHCP.
How do I convince Ubu that I really do want a static IP?
