But when i tried to ping some other machine, this didn’t work 🙁 I checked /var/log/messages and the onboard Broadcom Interface showed up as eth1, but i was not able to start it. When i ran $ sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart i got some error messages like: SIOCSIFADDR: No such device eth1 eth1: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device No clue what went wrong, i googled a lot and finally i stumbled upon this forum entry: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=221768 Then i ran: $ ifconfig -a and got a list with my network interfaces and more importantly with it’s MAC address.
i just found out that my Ubuntu Server 6.10 has login shells for almost all users set in the /etc/passwd file!

Especially www-data should not have a chance to create a shell in my opinion!
