My problem is straightforward. I did a sudo apt dist-upgrade. Nothing came up for me to respond to whatever for me to say I tweaked something wrong
I did a sudo reboot
Now I don’t have access to any outbound traffic. I did the dist-upgrade yesterday, 3rd november.
This is frustrating.

Oke, I just found the solution. Maybe this is can help you.
First, the problem is the upgrade makes eth0 changed to a different name, in my case changed to ens3. You can see it using command ifconfig -a.
So, the solution is simple.
- The easiest solution, you just need to change the config from
eth0toens3. In my VPS, the config located in/etc/network/interfaces.d/50-cloud-init.cfg. Generally, the config located in/etc/network/interfaces. - Other solution, you could bring back the
ens3toeth0. You could follow this tutorial. http://www.itzgeek.com/how-tos/mini-howtos/change-default-network-name-ens33-to-old-eth0-on-ubuntu-16-04.html
Last step, just restart the networking sudo systemctl restart networking. And voila!
