Making mistakes with NICs
I’m loving this idea of sharing ones personal foibles. We’re all human here, and sharing our mistakes helps others learn. I also find it oddly comforting to see people I respect making the same mistakes I do.
I spent twenty minutes today trying to figure out why I hadn’t been able to SSH into a VM. I verified I had the correct ports open on the firewall, that the OpenSSH service was running, and more embarrassing checks including making sure the VM was indeed running.
I hadn’t attached an IP address.
