Package: ifupdown
Version: 0.6.7
Severity: important
I have two network cards that have these lines in
/etc/network/interfaces:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet manual
(identical for eth1).
After a reboot, running ifconfig gives me information only on lo.
I need to run "ifconfig eth0 up" to have it activated. Running "ifdown
-a" leaves eth0 and eth1 as active (ifconfig still displays them), and
only removes the loopback device.
Yours,
Uri David Akavia
