Well, this is basically a reminder to the future when you need to reconfigure my network. haha!
Since I’m using a DHCP service on a router “D-Link”, I needed to automate my settings on my network interface to avoid always run the command “dhclient”.
/etc/nework/interfaces
auto eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp
So save the file “interfaces”, run “ifdown eth0″ to stop the service and “ifup eth0″ to starter again.
- Now run the command “ifdown eth0″ for stop service
root@btlagutoli-desktop:/home/btlagutoli# ifdown eth0 There is already a pid file /var/run/dhclient.eth0.pid with pid 1125 killed old client process, removed PID file Internet Systems Consortium DHCP Client V3.1.3 Copyright 2004-2009 Internet Systems Consortium.

- Finally, run “ifup eth0″ for start the service again

That’s it!
