"ifconfig eth0 up" and "ifconfig eth1 up" will do the same thing. If I remember correctly ifup (and ifdown) are wrapper scripts for ifconfig used on other systems. ifup and ifdown are not used on Gentoo. When you set a static IP using "ifconfig eth0 10.0.0.1" and "ifconfig eth1 10.0.1.1" the interfaces should be brought up automatically. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
