VMWare Ubuntu IP address change

              ·

I always have this problem when moving VMWare images of Ubuntu, the most recent of a 10.04 LTS Server. Whenever you move or copy a VMWare image it assigns a new Mac address and Ubuntu starts without properly bringing up the interface. Really annoying when you are using VMWare server without a console. To make it grab the IP Address again, simply remove the rule: [cc lang=“bash”] sudo rm /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
