    1: Linux PC setup.
    Make sure that your installed linux distro which has kernel 2.6.12 or newer version!

    I have Ubuntu 12, I have run ifconfig but no 192 address comes up.
    I get a 127.0.0.1 come up


    I have Virgini Super Hub and can't see that mac or the PC connected on the device list

    Need a help with getting my ip address for my Ubuntu PC, it is wired but cannot see it connected on my router.


    I am using the tutorial recommended to me above and got to the bit to make a static ip in my router for my server.


    I probably should have got the ip before i installed ubuntu, hopefully someone can help.


    I have tried if config but no ip address comes up


    Many thanks in advance

    Welcome to Linuxsat m8, what kind of PC or receiver do you plan on setting your server up on? If it is a PC, is it x32 or x64 Bit capable processor?


    Hello mate, i was gonna try with a PC initally, have a Dreambox HD800 sitting around.


    Got an old Dell PC with Intel Core 2 CPU 4400 @ 2.0 Ghz with 2GB RAM and running Windows 7 64 Bit

    Evening All


    Sorry if this is a silly question.


    I am looking to try out setting a server myself on a PC i have at home, am i right in saying i need to install to Linux to do this.


    Installing Linux will not affect still using the PC for normal day to day stuff


    Also there is many guides, any recommendations on which to follow


    Thank you in advance
