  I had one syntax error that totally broke networking on my amd64
stable..  Fortunately, I hadn't upgrade my hot backup machine <G>.  I
had simply removed the bash parentheses in /etc/conf.d/net and got...

config_eth0=
"192.168.123.249/29 broadcast 192.168.123.255 mtu 1454
169.254.1.3/16 broadcast 169.254.255.255"
routes_eth0=
"default via 192.168.123.254 metric 2
192.168.123.248/29 via 192.168.123.254 metric 0
169.254.0.0/16 via 169.254.1.3 metric 0"

  The result was "no network for you".  Moving the opening quote to
immediately after the equals sign (for both config_eth0 and routes_eth0)
fixed that, like so...

config_eth0="
192.168.123.249/29 broadcast 192.168.123.255 mtu 1454
169.254.1.3/16 broadcast 169.254.255.255"
routes_eth0="
default via 192.168.123.254 metric 2
192.168.123.248/29 via 192.168.123.254 metric 0
169.254.0.0/16 via 169.254.1.3 metric 0"

  A big thank you to William Hubbs for spotting that error.
