caution

WIP - General Rough Draft

If you’re using Ubuntu..you’re in luck!

  1. Log into VNC through the WinterNode Client Area.
  2. Enter your old VersatileNode root password.
  3. Edit the Network Interface by typing...nano /etc/network/interfaces
  4. You should be presented with a similar configuration here.
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address <Old IP - 104.128.X.X>
netmask <Old Subnet Mask - ex. 255.255.255.x>

gateway <Old Gateway - ex. 104.128.X.X>
  1. Update the last 3 lines, address, netmask, and gateway with the details in the IP Information listed in the WinterNode Client Area.
  2. Ctrl+O to save, Ctrl+X to exit.
  3. Then ifdown eth0 && ifup eth0 to restart the network interface.
  4. Finally, ping cloudflare.com and ping google.com to confirm internet capability.
