But server has one problem.When m/c get rebooted after some days uptime,it doesnot bring eth0 up by stating that other host is having same ip. so,i have to change ip in eth0's ifconfig file.then only it
My guess is that your network uses DHCP to assign IP addresses and this particular host is configured with a static IP.
Your options are to either use dhcpcd on this host, or remove this host's IP address from the DHCP pool so that it doesn't get allocated to any other machine.
