[hpsdr] two Metis arrived, both run very nicely

[John Melton]

By default the server uses eth0 you can change this to eth1 (or any
other interface) by adding the command line option "--interface eth1".

Linux does not assign an address to an interface by default if it cannot
get a DHCP address.  You have to configure the address manually with
Ubuntu:
 System->Preferences->Network Connections then double click on eth0 and
select IPv4 Settings tab.

Change "Method:" to Manual and configure the IP address you require.
