JOY - re:NOT HAPPY after Breezy upgrade/install

[Jay Ridgley]

Folks,

 Thanks to a great bit of assistance from Peter Garrett my network 
problems have been resolved.

 I am once again a happy Ubuntu user...

 For those who were wondering I was not stupid enough not to do a back 
up before starting the update. My home directory was intact. I make it a 
rule to always keep my additions and changes to a released system in a 
separate directory (file system on another computer). That way all I 
need to do is do an install and apply any changes.

The source of the problem was some information was missing and/or 
incorrectly specified in /etc/network/interfaces once that file was 
corrected and the external name servers added to /etc/resolv.conf, a 
reboot was all that was required.

This message is being posted via my newly updated Breezy system.

Thanks for all the responses they were helpful. If I can assist anyone 
in the future rest assured I will try to do my part.

Kind regards,
Jay
