"this was taken from the how to im reading"

(real noob here)

 

 

2 Installing And Configuring The Rest Of The System

 

Enable root user

 

Now I can login with the username and password I entered above. First I enable the root user for ease of installation. You can disable it later if you want.

 

sudo passwd root

su

 

Now we are logged in as root user.

 

 

Configure The Network

 

Because the Ubuntu installer has configured our system to get its network settings via DHCP, we have to change that now because a server should have a static IP address. Edit /etc/network/interfaces and adjust it to your needs (in this example setup I will use the IP address 192.168.0.100):

Sounds like you were attempting to execute it..

 



Code:
nano /etc/network/interfaces




 

then

 



Code:
/etc/init.d/networking start




 

(or restart if its already running)
