Lost IP-address, no access from LAN

Peat · Post by **Peat** » 23 Feb 2009, 06:49

Hi, I have forgot the local IP-adress I've set on my bubba and can't access the admin interface on the LAN port (DHCP not active).

Is there a way (of course it is!) I can edit a config file through SSH to allow temporary admin login on /web-admin from WAN, so I can change my IP settings and DHCP functionality?

Appreciate any clues to get this sorted.

You might use look@lan to scan the network for bubba's adress? (presuming you have got an idea in what adress-range Bubba's IP-adress may be found).

I've tried that but I can't find my server. In which file is the settings for the admin interface set? It must be possible to change tis from SSH on the WAN port. Or? Please?

If you can SSH over the WAN port then my guess is you want to edit /etc/network/interfaces
