[02:32] zzlatev_: you're welcome (sorry I had errands all day) [02:32] zzlatev_: there should be an updated version now :P [09:04] Hi! Each time when I restart my server, or when network parameters change, the server isn't able to get a new IP address. I have to manually run dhclient in order to get an IP address. [09:04] Any idea what might be the issue here and how to solve it? [10:05] super_koza: what's your network configuration like? pastebin? [10:23] I haven't done anything network wise, after installing the OS. [10:23] What should I paste? [10:25] super_koza: your network configuration. if you're running a server, you must know what that is. [10:29] well I am not experienced, but I am willing to learn :) [10:29] or at least I am trying to learn [10:31] super_koza: default on ubuntu is netplan.io which is just a configuration abstractor for a backend. on server editions, the backend is networkd. can you can pastebin systemd-networkd config? It should be under /etc/systemd/network/ [10:31] also please pastebin files under /etc/netplan/ [11:13] teward: yes it is, once again - tnank yo for everything [13:35] @blackflow: Sorry, I was AFK [13:37] The folder /etc/systemd/network is empty, there is nothing there :) [13:37] In /etc/netplan/ there is only 1 file: 01-netcfg.yaml [13:39] Here it is: https://pastebin.com/tf9cQJk0 [13:41] This is the network interface that I use: https://pastebin.com/4RcvHs40 [13:41] Notice that it is called eno1 [13:45] super_koza: that's your problem. netplan is configuring enp0s25 instead. I'd say just change that to eno1 in that netplan file but the $32k question here is why did it change. [13:46] ok, thanks a lot [13:47] I will give it a try :) [13:47] run `netplan apply` after you change its config. might disconnect you if you're doing this over ssh. [13:48] The only explanation I have for the change is that it might have picked up a small USB dongle when I attached a monitor to it... [13:49] that's possible I suppose. there have been bug reports of NICs changing names after random hardware is added, removed. but usually it'd be something like different slot in the enp0sX form [13:49] nevertheless, you can force and bind the NIC name via its MAC address.
