Previously, ifstate resided in /etc/network/run, and there was code which performed the cleanup on each boot. Since then ago this location has been deprecated in favour or /run, which is brand new on every boot (and usually is on tmpfs). If your /run isn't cleaned up, that's your problem which needs fixing, not ifupdown. -- Cheers, Andrew -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
