[gentoo-user] strange error when trying to start network
Hi. I have a network cardwhich I am trying to start and it has worked before, but today when I tried to start the card, I get the following: RTNETLINK answers: file exists. I notice that its not building the default route. Here are its configs using baselayout2 and openrc 5.2-r1 config_eth1=67.62.15.196 netmask 255.255.255.0 routes_eth1=default via 67.62.15.1 I had default gw in the routes, but it seemed to say that if mo module was specified iproute2 was used so I changed to default via, but no joy. Any assistance would be appreciated. -- Your life is like a penny. You're going to lose it. The question is: How do you spend it? John Covici cov...@ccs.covici.com

When I put ifconfig_eth1 it just said no config using dhcp, and when I changed it to config_eth1, it did not like defaultroute. -- Your life is like a penny. You're going to lose it.

The ones that come with newer versions of openrc. If you decide to use them, your configuration now goes into network, but you also have to use the corresponding init script. Bye...

Editing /etc/conf.d/network doesn't have any effect unless you also drop the old init scripts (net.*) and use the new one (network). Bye...
