Category: Release/Branch: Bering Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Todd (thompsot) Assigned to: Mike Noyes (mhnoyes) Summary: dhclient/networking starting too soon Initial Comment: Hi, I just installed Bering 1.1 on an old laptop (dell lattitude 150Mhz w/ 40mb RAM), and I love it! There's one thing I can't figure out though... (well, two actually)... I can't get dhclient to start automatically, I have to drop out of the menu to a prompt and type "/etc/init.d/networking restart" before it will fetch an address. (I had to remove the pump package and use dhclient instead, because pump would not work at all for me). If I type "/etc/init.d/networking start", I get an error saying that eth0 and eth1 are already initialized, but no addresses, so I have to use "restart". Is there any command on here that will show me something similar to ifconfig? When it boots, I can see the cardmgr load and my pcmcia cards load OK. It looks like maybe networking is trying to start too soon or something... I see a message for DHCP and something about "warning, couldn't find route for eth0" or similar very early on, then pcmcia and cardmgr load and shorewall loads. The other thing is related to the first one... how do I change the order in which things start up, or how to write a litte script to run certain commands after everything is up? I'm connected to a RoadRunner cable modem through eth0. eth1 is my private local net. I think if I could figure out how to rearrange the startup services I may be able to force dhcp and shorewall to load at the end.(?) Oh, there is "One More Thing...", when I get a few hits on the firewall from the outside, my weblet shows "Warning" on the firewall. If I get a lot of activity from the net (portscans or whatever), the weblet shows "Error" on the firewall. Is that something I should be worried about? Or do "Warning" and "Error" just mean "There is a lot of activity out there today"? Many Thanks for a superb product. I tried gibraltar and smoothwall GPL, but the Bering LEAF rocks and I'm sticking with it. You have done a great job.
