I have ubuntu 8.10 and my network was fine but I put up virtucalbox and install microsoft vista on it it worked fine but it was saying I need to put up bridge for vista so it can go on line and know my ubuntu have no connection. I have static ip address and I can see it there and also my mac address.
I install this
sudo apt-get install bridge-utils uml-utilities
sudo gpasswd -a [user] uml-net ( I put in my user name instead of user)
and then edit network interface
sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces
and put in this line in the end.
auto tap0
iface tap0 inet manual
up ifconfig $IFACE 0.0.0.0 up
down ifconfig $IFACE down
tunctl_user [user]
auto br0
iface br0 inet static
address 192.168.xxx.xxx (here I put in my static ip address)
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.xxx.xxx (here I put in my gateway address)
bridge_ports eth0 tap0
close and restart network
sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
and then I lost my network
here is this webpage I follow http://dirn.name/2008/11/network-bri...intrepid-ibex/
I took a pictures from my outprint in terminal, it take too long time for me to type it here
If some one can take a look on this. Thanks
