Last question first: network-admin and it should be in /usr/bin

As for the first question, I've nuked my interfaces file a couple of
times. The easiest thing I've found is to eliminate the file or rename
it interfaces-nuked and use the network-admin program to start afresh.
It will set up a fresh "interfaces" file as you use it.

With best regards,

Pete
