ANSWERED Choose IP address?

[user412f3ew 0]

Is it possible to choose to use a specific IP address from a list of available IP addresses, or will the IP address be picked at random? How would one go about choosing a specific IP address if using the Linux setup?

Do you mean that you want to always have the local "10.4.?.?" always be the same, across servers? Presumably so that you can configure some network daemon to listen on that IP address? If so, you could adapt what I do on Windows 7 to Linux. See this post:

Or do you mean that you want the IP address that the world sees you at to be fixed? This is not possible. But AirVPN will let you have a fixed domain name that follows the server you are using ("Dynamic DNS"). See this post:
