Try setting up an nic dummy0 with ip 10.0.2.2 and netmask 255.255.255.255 And you can try to setup eth0 with allow-hotplug, instead of auto. I guess things will boot faster then. Not sure if bind and dhcp will restart if you plug in eth0 after the machine is started, but I guess you can tell me :) -- Finn-Arne Johansen [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://bzz.no/ EE2A71C6403A3D191FCDC043006F1215062E6642 062E6642 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
