Thank you for this tutorial!
I followed it in conjunction with http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_ubuntu704_p3 as I need static IP setup.

Installation went through OK. When installed with DHCP (and router-modem set to the same)- all works.
As I needed static IP, instead of DHCP, so followed tutorial from the link above. To convert to static IP.

I modified /etc/network/interfaces to fixed IP settings to this:

# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.0.100
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.0.0
broadcast 192.168.0.255
gateway 192.168.0.1

Restarted the new server.

Then modified /etc/hosts to:

127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
192.168.0.100 server1.example.com server1

# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
ff02::3 ip6-allhosts

Now. The new host responds OK to hostname -f.

As I came to do updates - no internet connection! I can ping the router, the other PCs on the network and the server itself from any PC on the network.
Checked router firewall - nothing untoward and nothing in the security log to indicate any connections refused.
What am I missing?

Sorry for such a long post! I hope someone can point me in right direction.
Thanks again!

I am trying to learn how to install a Lamps server 7.04 from command line. I know that everybody says to install a GUI if you are new to Linux but I have been told that to learn Linux the right way you should learn the command line first. I have followed the above instructions but would like to continue under the command line afterwards. Can someone help me?

Thanks

That vi command needs a leading slash in the path:

vi /etc/apt/sources.list

first you need to install vim editor using the following command
sudp apt-get install vim
now edit the file using the following command
vi /etc/apt/sources.list

now use Esc+i to insert content and also use del key to delete commenting sources list

Hi,

I am about to install Ubuntu Server Edition for a large organization and I am preparing myself to have the GUI since I am new user of Ubuntu and not a Linux geek.
Can you tell how to enabled Universe and multiverse repositories in /etc/apt/sources.list. I saw that in the thread of email above as a requisite to install the GUI.

Thanks for your assistance.
