--- Begin Message ---Package: ifupdown Version: 0.6.7 Severity: normal I run Etch on a laptop and cardmgr configures my ethernet card. I'm trying to configure ifupdown to start fetchmail only after the network is up. I then noticed that /etc/network/if-post-up.d/ didn't exist. I created it and dropped my script there. However, it's not executed when the interface is brought up. The man page for interfaces(5) says about the pre and post options: There exists for each of the above mentioned options a directory /etc/net- work/if-<option>.d/ the scripts in which are run (with no arguments) using run-parts(8) after the option itself has been processed. iface eth0 inet dhcp post-up /etc/network/if-post-up.d/fetchmail then the script is executed. I'm not quite sure if I'm missing something here, or the man page is not in sync with the behaviour of the utility.
