Have you tried using .network files? You can setup it static:

$ cat /etc/systemd/network/enp2s0.network
# Ethernet

[Match]
Name=enp2s0

[Network]
Address=192.168.1.1/24
Gateway=192.168.1.254
DNS=192.168.1.254

or with DHCP:

# /etc/systemd/network/30-bond1.network
[Match]
Name=bond1

[Network]
DHCP=ipv6

Even with wpa_supplicant[1].

Regards.

If you are not starting systemd-networkd, network-online will fail. You
only need to create a file in /etc/systemd/network to configure your
card, something like

[Match]
Name=eth0

[Network]
Description=Wired network
DHCP=yes

Then start systemd-networkd.service.

Thanks.  I am not usingsystemd-network or anything like that.I
created a service called network and use the %i and links in
/etc/systemd/system/multi-user-target.wants to start my two cards.
Maybe this is not the normal way, but when I first started using
systemd, this is the best I could come up with at the time.

I will try the drop-in, I had kind of forgot about them.

Are you using systemd-networkd or something else to manage your network?

You can create a drop-in to require the service to start after named, run
"systemctl edit ntpdate.service" and add

[Unit]
Requires=named.service
After=named.service

That will create a drop-in file in /etc/systemd/system/ntpdate.service.d
containing your additions - you can also create these files manually.

[gentoo-user] A couple of problems with systemd

2022-05-27 Thread John Covici
Hi.  Lately I am having a couple of problems with systemd.  I am using
version 250.5-r1.

I have one service which always times out, but slows down the boot
process.  It is
/lib/systemd/system/systemd-networkd-wait-online.service.  Because
many jobs wait in queue for a while, till this fails.

Also, I have a couple of services, ntpdate and proftpd which always
fail because when they try to execute named has not started yet.  I
can restart them once the system is fully booted and I can login.

So, I wonder if this is all related to the failing service, or are
they separate problems that I can fix?  And can you suggest how to fix
the two service which seem to start too soon?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
