              Two things:

              1. For some reason the CentOS 7 iso doesn't start with the network interface enabled.
              2. Lost power last night 😞 Starting again now.

                @wirestyle22 Ran into that in the past as well, i set it to automatic using nmtui and never have to worry about it again.

                  @tiagom Yeah. I did that to apply updates etc but now I'm setting up a static ip as this is a server.

                            So I finished this guide but my CentOS 7 file server isn't discoverable. Ideas?

                              @wirestyle22 Discoverable? You couldn't access using \\server-ip-address\sharename ?

                                Are you a Windows shop? Did you add it to DNS?

                                  @Romo No but maybe I did it wrong. Does the path look like this?

                                  \\192.168.1.202\etc\home\public

                                    Yes I want to acces it from a Windows PC. No I didn't add it to DNS. Can we add this to the guide?

                                      I meant if you are used to the Windows world (which I am), the devices just automagically add themselves to DNS.

                                      I have memorized all my Linux box IPs because I haven't had the desire to add them into DNS manually yet. Which made me wonder if it was the same issue.

                                        I'm just attempting to mount the drive. With a static IP I don't think that's required, right? Or do you mean to make it discoverable on the network? It's probably required for that.

                                          Right, I was answering the "discoverable on the network", but actually "by name" which I now realize isn't what you are asking.
