Ah, time to reconfigure the IP address. Just set that, and *click* bring down network port, and *click* bring it up again… *click* … *click* … oh.

Based on a true story.

“No! No! Log out you fool! No! Don’t shut it down oh god he shut it down”

The question then is why the intern has access to the shut down button.
