Hello, Basically I don't get your question properly. If I am not wrong then you want Ubuntu 9.10 which is set to use DHCP to change it to a static IP address. Use the steps below to achieve this:
Open the interface and then type the command below:
Code:
sudo vi /etc/network/interfaces
Now as mostly DHCP is used for your primary network card which is eth0, you will see the following lines:
Code:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
Now set the setting as below by typing the command and restart your network service.
Code:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.7
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.1.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255
gateway 192.168.1.1
