That would be an improvement over the current status. Should I open a bug report? Though if there would a meaningful (=not many false positives and false negatives) message during the upgrade, that would be much better. Users tend not to read release notes... Also I think the issue goes much beyond ifupdown, e.g. shorewall uses network interface names in its config files as well. Thanks Rainer -- Rainer Dorsch http://bokomoko.de/
