   Walt Shekrota to All   
   re /etc/conf.d/net format and scripts

   From: wshekrota@optonline.net   
      
   I have a problem after most recent emerge not only setting up the   
   conf.d/net but starting the adapter. If I use dhclient on the cable   
   adapter eth0 it comes right up. But if I invoke 'init.d/net.eth0   
   start' I get a series of repetitive script errors.   
      
   This could be fallout from incorrect conf.d/net setup or just   
   breakage in my emerge after a compiler split. I did do an   
   emerge -e on system so I'm sure all the core stuff is right.   
      
   Let me know if there is a specific package the could be re-emerged   
   or if need be I can post the changes I made to the conf.d/net file.   
      
   The basic layout here is that of a router.   
   eth0 (cable attached)   
   eth1 (inward adapter)   
   dhclient (used on cable)   
   dhcpd (used for my own network but not running right now)   
   As I said if I start everything by hand it is working fine so the   
   system scripts are suspect.   
      
   my conf.d/net file is:   
   config_eth1=( "192.168.0.33 netmask 255.255.255.0 brd 192.168.0.255" )   
   config_eth0=( "dhcp" )   
   dhcp_eth0="nodns nontp nonis"   
      
      
   Thanks for any leads.
