Package: ifupdown Version: 0.6.7 Severity: important Some Debian packages automatically update /etc/network/interfaces. So it happens that some interfaces are duplicate in this file. Then ifup and ifdown are not able to handle this file. This leads to a total block of all network activities, including the internet access. This is a severe damage to the whole system.
Unfortunately, the error message is also very bad. It says ifup: couldn't read interfaces file "/etc/network/interfaces" Please make /etc/network/interfaces accessible by using the first or last of the duplicate interfaces and ignoring the rest. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15-1-k7 Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Versions of packages ifupdown depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.4.70 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.3.5-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii net-tools 1.60-17 The NET-3 networking toolkit ifupdown recommends no packages. -- debconf information: ifupdown/convert-interfaces: true ______________________________________________________________ Verschicken Sie romantische, coole und witzige Bilder per SMS!
