I am having troubling bringing up my eth1 in my private network
I have set up /etc/network/interfaces to look like this:
auto eth1
allow-hotplug eth1
iface eth1 inet static
address 10.10.20.50
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 10.10.20.1
The only thing that I could think that could be wrong is my vmware adapter is not recognizing my kali eth1 adapter but I am not sure. Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Comment or erase the first 2 lines. It shoud look like this:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
iface eth1 inet static
network 10.10.20.0
address 10.10.20.50
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 10.10.20.1
broadcast 10.10.20.255
The "lo" is a local interface and is not necesary to connect to the network, BUT it is necessary IF we want to make some conection tests and identify the computer/host.
"loopback" specifies thet loopback configuration must be loaded.
You can leave the lo interface out if you wish so.
Try it.
