Hi Jakob et all,

I have half figured out my issue. My bonding related logoff problems
were caused by my /etc/resolv.conf file being overwritten with
information handed out by my ltsp client facing dhcp server. The
second interface that I added to the bond, was getting dhcp
information meant for thin clients via dhcp and overwriting
/etc/resolv.conf. The bond still came up, but I had misconfigured
/etc/resolv.conf file.

This is all happening on Ubuntu 8.04.3/Hardy, btw

What is the right way to keep an interface from being a dhcp client
without interfering with the bonding process? Google hasn't answered
this for me yet.

Should I simply add a line like:

auto eth3
iface eth3 inet static

to /etc/network/interfaces

should I remove dhcdbd from /etc/rc2.d ?

Any advice would be appreciated. Below is my /etc/network/interfaces file

Thanks!

John
