add alternate netmask to static address config?
« on: February 25, 2008, 10:11:59 pm »
In eBox Network -> Interfaces... when setting a host interface to a static address, the Netmask is a pull down menu.  If the netmask needed is not in the selection list (in this case 255.255.248.0) - what is the best way of adding it?

Thanks,

Eric

You must edit /usr/share/ebox/templates/network/ifaces.mas and add your desired netmask as follows after line 116:

Code: [Select]
<option value='255.255.248.0'>255.255.248.0</option>
