I have traced the program that is trying to bring up ifup eth0 upon reinsertion of my lan card.... to /etc/hotplug/net.agent. It appears to try to run ifup eth0, but there is no signs of success on this. The log does bring uip the message of the attempted invoke (without error message)
I even played with the idea of calling it twice within
the script, but it didn't work either. However
manually "ifup eth0" works.
I included straces of "service pcmcia restart" and
"/etc/hotplug/net.agent" in case that would be of
help. I also modified the ifup so that it removes any
processes that are running, before the rest of the
script gets started.
The additions to ifup are (courtesy of Liam Quin with
a minor modification by me):
if test -f /etc/dhcpc/dhcpcd-eth0.pid
then
if kill -0 `cat /etc/dhcpc/dhcpcd-eth0.pid`
then
# still running
kill `cat /etc/dhcpc/dhcpcd-eth0.pid`
else
/bin/rm -f /etc/dhcpc/dhcpcd-eth0.pid
