Ubuntu 8.04.1 Server is installed on VMware and clones a virtual machine. Found Eth0 disappeared, there was a eth1.
The reason is that Ubuntu records the MAC address of the NIC. The MAC address of the original virtual machine is recorded as a eth0. Clone, VMware assigns a new MAC address to the virtual machine to avoid conflicts. This way, in Ubuntu, the newly discovered address is set to eth1.
In the Ubuntu 7.x version, the corresponding file is/etc/iftab file. In Ubuntu 8.04.1, the corresponding files are:
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
Modify the file directly and delete the line that corresponds to eth0. Then the eth1 corresponding to which line of "eth1" modified to "eth0" can be.
Another way is: to delete the contents of the inside, and then restart, the system will rediscover the NIC hardware, re-generate the file.
