network manager - Have to run sudo dhclient eth0 automatically every boot - Ask Ubuntu
I just installed ubuntu 12.04.1 alternative install (for raid 0 on some disks). I Have some problems with the net. I'm at school, we use cable, and it got IPv6.
If I
run ifconfig eth0
heres my output:eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr e0:cb:4e:87:ff:db inet addr:128.39.194.217 Bcast:128.39.194.223 Mask:255.255.255.224 inet6 addr: 2001:700:1100:8008:e2cb:4eff:fe87:ffdb/64 Scope:Global inet6 addr: fe80::e2cb:4eff:fe87:ffdb/64 Scope:Link inet6 addr: 2001:700:1100:8008:48f7:c23:1d87:da6c/64 Scope:Global UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:1063378 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:489811 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:1577173461 (1.5 GB) TX bytes:37043669 (37.0 MB) Interrupt:68 Base address:0x6000
My /etc/network/interfaces look like this:
# 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 # NetworkManager#iface eth0 inet dhcp # NetworkManager#hostname 2001:700:1100:1::4 # This is an autoconfigured IPv6 interface iface eth0 inet6 auto
(I had to remove the hash tags, because of the BIGFONT i get on ask ubuntu)
The "network manager" says that I'm not connected.
Let me know if you need any more information. :)

Ok so I have a way better answer then I had before.
How about we try this.
Open a terminal.
gksu gedit /etc/rc.local
Add:
sudo dhclient eth0
like so.#!/bin/sh -e # # rc.local # # This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel. # Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other # value on error. # # In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution # bits. # # By default this script does nothing. sudo dhclient eth0 exit 0
Save & Close. Reboot and should work.
auto lo
andiface lo inet loopback
