My wireless has been working fine, I don't think I even ran any updates 
yesturday, but this morning I get this

/etc/init.d/net.eth1 start
 * Starting eth1
 *   Configuring wireless network for eth1
 *     eth1 connected to ESSID "ptfd" at 00:06:25:D9:DC:2F
 *     in managed mode on channel 11 (WEP disabled)
 *   Bringing up eth1
 *     192.168.14.102
 *     192.168.14.102 already taken on eth1      

I don't get that last line, why is it reporting that the ip is already taken 
on eth1 when I am starting eth1? 

ifconfig shows no eth1 setup.
I can run eth1 with dhcpcd and it gets a differernt ip, in teh same subnet, 
everything else seems fine. My eth1 wireless is set at teh static ip 
with /etc/conf.d/wireless, mostly due to using my system on several nets and 
vpn's and vmware, I just like the static ip's better, but can't figure 
this...

here is teh applicable from my /etc/conf.d/wireless 

config_ptfd=( "192.168.14.102 brd 192.168.14.255 netmask 255.255.255.0")
routes_ptfd=("default via 192.168.14.1")
dns_servers_ptfd=( "68.87.72.130" "68.87.77.130" )

Any ideas are appreciated, I must be missing something... I have been 
suspending to ram lately, but this is with a fresh boot..

Mike
