Network temporarly not availible?

[hugtux]

I get the message that my network is temp. not availible when I ping 127.0.0.1

But the eth0 is installed. What could be the case here?

How is your network configured? Do you use DHCP?

[thewolfro]

what message do you get if you try "/etc/init.d/networking restart" command?

I already solved it:

# /etc/network/interfaces -- configuration file for ifup(8), ifdown(8)

# The loopback interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The first network card - this entry was created during the Debian installation
# (network, broadcast and gateway are optional)
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp[list=]

Thanks anyway
