A short teaser video of a tiny bit of what’s coming our way. Many thanks to all the people who have worked hard to make this release possible. You inspire us all, giving us real incentives to push the boundaries, improve ourselves and the people around us.
After completing the simple and straightforward installation procedure of Ubuntu Server 11.04, you’ll quickly realize that the OS is configured to ask for an IP address from the local DHCP server. That’s all fine and dandy if you want to take a quick look around or casually test it to see if it’s the right choice for your particular needs. But if you want to actually use the OS for anything useful, then you should really give your Ubuntu Server a static IP address.
