Bug#351975: netbase: why start networking service on runlevel 0/6?

2006-09-14 Thread Petter Reinholdtsen

[Qingning Huo]
 Are there any reason that the networking service script is being
 started at runlevel 0 and 6?  I expect it should be stopped when I
 power off the machine.  The effect of networking not stopped is the
 power LED of my wireless card is not turned off when the machine is
 off.

If you look in /etc/init.d/rc, you will notice that even the start
scripts in runlevel 0 and 6 are called with the stop argument, so the
network script is indeed stopped when doing shutdown and halt.  If
your LED isn't turned off when the machine is turned off, the problem
is not related to how the networking script is called during shutdown.

It can be argued that the the setup of runlevel 0 and 6 is a design
error in the current boot system, but it is not too easy to fix. :)

Friendly,

This is something which should be clarified by the ifupdown maintainers.
(Who are once again requested to please start/stop ifupdown in a init
script from their own package, thank you...)

Hi,

Are there any reason that the networking service script is being started
at runlevel 0 and 6?  I expect it should be stopped when I power off the
machine.  The effect of networking not stopped is the power LED of my 
wireless card is not turned off when the machine is off.

Thanks,

Qingning
