Unfortunately, not always the good one. Richard : you should have a look at RC_PLUG_SERVICES in /etc/conf.d/rc Another solution if you are dhcp-ing is (from /etc/conf.d/net.example) : # For passing custom options to dhcpcd use something like the following. This # example reduces the timeout for retrieving an address from 60 seconds (the # default) to 10 seconds. #dhcpcd_eth0="-t 10" But !!! Yes, there is a "but"... Be carefull. On some networks, it might takes a bit more than 10sec to receive an dhcp answer. -- Cordialement, Patrice BOUVARD, Networks & Systems Engineer -- [email protected] mailing list
