OK, I set that variable to 20 seconds. However, the real problem is still not solved. Now, instead of waiting for 60 seconds, I can wait 20 seconds for _any_ program to start when I am not connected. The only solution that I can think of now would be a manual intervention (eg. open MCC, type root password, goto system, goto services, stop network). Ideally I would like my machine to function normally after a network disconnect without manual intervention. Is there no way to specify that dhcpcd should not be invoked unless there is an action carried out that expressedly needs to send/fetch data over the network?
