I'm able to connect to the Internet using this same cable using a Windows machine, so there's something wrong with the way Linux is configured. How do I got about figuring out what the problem is and solving it? Here are my network settings on Linux: $ ifconfig lo no such device Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 vmnet1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:50:56:c0:00:01 inet addr:192.168.79.1 Bcast:192.168.79.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::250:56ff:fec0:1/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 vmnet8 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:50:56:c0:00:08 inet addr:192.168.192.1 Bcast:192.168.192.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::250:56ff:fec0:8/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 Here are my network settings on Windows (Vista): Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection: Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : [removed by me].

Accidently I choosed to generate a new random MAC-address for my Ubuntu machine in VirtualBox. And now when I have booted my Ubuntu with the new MAC-address, I don't get an external IP-address. I'm using DHCP to get IP-addresses. I guess I have to run a command and inform my Ubuntu system that the MAC-address has changed to get an external IP-address. If I execute sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart I get this message: SIOCSIFADDR: No such device eth0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device eth0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device Bind socket to interface: No such device Failed to bring up eth0 How can I solve this? networking server configuration share|improve this question edited Oct 25 '10 at 14:06 asked Oct 25 '10 at 13:13 Jonas 1,533102133 add a comment| 3 Answers 3 active oldest votes up vote 12 down vote accepted Since your mac address have changed you no longer have an interface called eth0, this name is reserved for an interface with the "old" mac-address. The "new" interface should have the next free name (eg. ethN). To see all the interfaces on the machine you can use this command: ifconfig -a If you want to reset the name reservations for network interfaces you can remove the file /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and restart the machine (or remove/insert the device, though this is not possible in this case). Alternatively you can change the interface-name that you have configured to what ever the new one is called by changing all occur
