Ubuntu Networking Tips ########################

Instead of separate files, ubuntu attempts to manage all networking
settings from one file.

**/etc/network/interfaces**

.. code-block:: config

auto eth0 inet [dhcp|manual|static]

dhcp get all settings from DHCP server

static get no settings from DHCP server, configure all settings
statically

manual get all settings from an external process or program
