Wow thank you!

I remembered a similar thing with a WIN7 virtual machine, but to get the new MAC address to stick in that instance I just made a new virtual network card and WIN recognized it as new hardware.

You saved my bacon!

Back to arcane config files foe me now…

Thanks for this really helped me out.

I have renamed the file before I shutdown my VM and then converted it to a template. This seems to work then when I deploy it.

Great. Thanks again.

Thanks a lot. It worked for me. I was clueless as I’m totally new to Linux

My server was loading eth2 and the static ip was set for eth0. Renamed the file and rebooted…all problems gone! Thanks!

Ran into this problem (Ubuntu 10.04 KVM Cloning) and came upon your site for the solution. Absolutely fantastic article, works perfectly! Cheers Mate!
