Bug Description

The first bit of information in the server guide under networking is not really good information. It says to get all ethernet interfaces pipe the ifconfig -a into grep eth. ifconfig -a | grep eth. However, at least in my case, Ubuntu names my PCI ethernet cards p13p1 p13p2 etc so piping into grep eth only shows one of the 5 NIC cards. It might be obvious to others but the information is still wrong.
