Package: ifupdown Version: 0.7~alpha5.1ubuntu5 Severity: normal
The following bug report was filed against Ubuntu Oneiric: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ifupdown/+bug/678425 After a bit of testing I managed to reproduce it on Debian too. Using the following /etc/network/interfaces: auto lo iface lo inet loopback auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.122.17 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.122.1 auto eth0:0 iface eth0:0 inet static address 192.168.122.18 netmask 255.255.255.0 ifupdown 0.7~alpha5+really0.6.15 properly brings up both eth0 and eth0:0 when doing "ifup -a", after upgrading to ifupdown 0.7~beta1, only eth0 is up. root@debian01:~# ifdown -a root@debian01:~# ifconfig root@debian01:~# ifup -a root@debian01:~# ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 8a:90:f8:95:7a:80 inet addr:192.168.122.17 Bcast:0.0.0.0 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::8890:f8ff:fe95:7a80/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:60745 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:46113 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:89047505 (84.9 MiB) TX bytes:3240597 (3.0 MiB) lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:0 (0.0 B) TX bytes:0 (0.0 B) root@debian01:~# ifup eth0:0 ifup: interface eth0:0 already configured Explicitly bringing up eth0:0 when eth0 is also considered down gives some intersting result: root@debian01:~# ifdown -a root@debian01:~# ifup eth0:0 root@debian01:~# ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 8a:90:f8:95:7a:80 inet addr:192.168.122.18 Bcast:0.0.0.0 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::8890:f8ff:fe95:7a80/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:60774 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:46120 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:89048999 (84.9 MiB) TX bytes:3241631 (3.0 MiB) root@debian01:~# ifup --version ifup version 0.7beta Copyright (c) 1999-2007 Anthony Towns This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers oneiric-updates APT policy: (500, 'oneiric-updates'), (500, 'oneiric-security'), (500, 'oneiric') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.0.0-12-generic (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages ifupdown depends on: ii initscripts 2.88dsf-13.10ubuntu4 scripts for initializing and shutt ii iproute 20110315-1build1 networking and traffic control too ii libc6 2.13-20ubuntu5 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii lsb-base 4.0-0ubuntu16 Linux Standard Base 4.0 init scrip ii upstart [upstart-jo 1.3-0ubuntu10 event-based init daemon ifupdown recommends no packages.
