Hi - I have a pretty clean install of 16.04 - only installed virtualbox since I set up the system. Earlier today I tried to get the Windows 10 machine to bridge to the Ubuntu 16.04 network adapter and I'm sure I've screwed something up. after installing Samba to try to get the Win 10 machine running in VB to be seen by the windows network that this Ubuntu system is connected to (physically).
I can't connect to the network now. It's like the eno1 connection is still stuck in some kind of mode that won't let it get an ip address.
I've tried stopping and starting the network service. as well as nano editing the /etc/network/interfaces file to:
auto eno1
iface eno1 inet dhcp
The system refuses to grab an ip address from the router.
ifconfig - a is returning lo info, eno1 info (no ip address assigned). as well as eno1:avahi (indicating a failed attempt to get an ip address).
desperate for any help. At this stage I'm not even dealing with the virtualbox connectivity. just native Ubuntu OS on the system itself.
Thank you in advance.
