eth0 doesn't start at boot

[andradeam]

hey guys, i'm installing ebox but the interface eth0 doesn't start at boot, i have to type /etc/init.d/networking restart everytime. when i do that works fine...but i cannot understand why i have to do this, in another server its start ever.

i'm noob,  and my english isnt the best... ..but, can anyone help ?


notes:
1) the network card is onboard, via82cxxx.
2) my /etc/network/interfaces

#start   
#loopback interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

#eth0 interface
auto eth0
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.0.99
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.0.0
broadcast 192.168.0.255
gateway 192.168.0.1

#end

Hi Andra,

There is nothing to do with eBox but please refer to Ubuntu forum www.ubuntuforums.org

Hope this helps.

Thank you.

Hi Andra,

Did you enable the nework module?

hi javi, i solved that problem reinstalling the ebox plataform, the problem was the ACPI power manager, i shut down it, and works  , but now i've a new trouble, after the reinstallation, i installed 2 new network cards, realtek 8139 (8139too), both appears installed, i set the ips (ifconfig eth1 x.x.x.x) ok. but i cant ping any more, the web configurator doesnt work too, it's like the linux is confused how network card must be used, understand ? i noob in linux, yet.  ... i cant solve this, any help ? 


the eth0 appears to be changed to eth1, , there is  a way to fix this ?

let me show, what i wanna do.

eth0 - access the network (onboard)
eth1 - internet
eth2 - internet

my plans is create a transparent proxy server with multiwans , 2 gateways, more speed for internet, you know ?

i live in manaus, amazon, brazil, internet here... ...my download rate... 20 kpbs..


help me....
