I believe /var/run is a more suitable place for this. http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#VARRUNRUNTIMEVARIABLEDATA > * ifdown - source configuration files from /run/network/$int/*. > * ifdown - if interface configuration files do not exist, ip addr > flush $int, ip link set $int down, exit 0. There might be situations where manual modification of an existing interface was done leaving ip addr flush still a needed option even with a state file. I imagine this as generally a corner case, but I'm putting it out there in case it is considered a legitimate concern. I saw you mention ppp <snipped> and pppoe is still a valid use for it. I'm not sure how involved the scripts should get. Is grepping for a running dhcp client on that interface too far? > * Add a copy of the MIT license file to bootscripts. Why MIT?

Disabled by default sound like a good compromise. -- Archaic -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
