Thank you Neil, I just tried netplug and indeed behaves the same as ifplugd - one has to start the interface before netplug will configure a connection. Interestingly, there is a difference between netplug and ifplugd. ifplugd when started by hand, will initialise and configure a NIC. netplug will not. It requires that the interface has been enabled before it does anything. -- Regards, Mick signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
