Do you want it to work when the interface is up? What I was trying to say is that with most hardware it will work when the interface is up or down, or it will not work when the interface is up or down. You can't do what I think you want.
I'm not sure what you think you're saying here: what I expect is that if my external interface(s) is(are) down, I do not want applications working that should not. Many applications fail if names don't resolve, and when that happens it's abundantly clear that something is broken and I get to recognise that it needs to be fixed. If squid and sendmail and other stuff starts as if nothing's wrong when something is, it might be some time before I recognise that a network cable or a power cable has fallen out. -- Cheers John -- spambait [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Advice http://webfoot.com/advice/email.top.php http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555375 You cannot reply off-list:-) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
