--- Begin Message ---Package: ifupdown Version: 0.6.4-4.8 Severity: normal My network up script no longer works as it should with 0.6.4-4.7 unfortunatly downgrading back to 0.6.4-4.6 did not fix the problem. Here is a snipet of my script the purpose is to only run if both ojibway5 and comcast interfaces have been probed and brought up. $COMCAST should be exported with it's value that of it's $IFACE. $MODE=do is my own creation it's the next level of $MODE=start. This script worked fine AFAIK untill I upgraded. Now the iface file is not written too untill after these commands are run. /e/n/.ojibway5_comcast.sh is an auto-generated script and set +x, it's set -x when run on ifdown. ojibway5_comcast () { if grep -q =ojibway5 /etc/network/ifstate && grep -q =comcast /etc/network/ifstate && [ ! -x /etc/network/.ojibway5_comcast.sh ] then echo Running. MODE="do" COMCAST="$(grep =comcast /etc/network/ifstate | cut -f1 -d=)" /etc/network/ifup-mkundo.sh\ $0 /etc/network/.ojibway5_comcast.sh\ ojibway5_comcast fi } How is this tobe done now? -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (930, 'unstable'), (900, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: sparc (sparc64) Kernel: Linux 2.4.24-sparc64 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C Versions of packages ifupdown depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.4.22 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-11 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii net-tools 1.60-9 The NET-3 networking toolkit -- debconf information: ifupdown/convert-interfaces: true
--- End Message ---
--- Begin Message ---The requested functionality will not be supported. The ifstate file is not something that should be read by external scripts. The best solution is to do "ifquery --state $IFACE", where IFACE is a physical interface name. If some action should be taken based on the logical interface, use the up and down keywords to save the required state manually. -- Met vriendelijke groet / with kind regards, Guus Sliepen <[email protected]>
