Package: ifupdown
Version: 0.6.6
Severity: minor
Lines beginning with "allow-" are used to iden-
tify interfaces that should be brought up auto-
matically by various subsytems.
This wording may lead the reader to believe that --allow can be used
along with -a; i.e., that this:
ifup --allow=hotplug -a
can be used to bring up all interfaces in allow-hotplug lines to be
upped. However, ifup does not work this way. It seems that when -a
is used, --allow is ignored. That might be worth mentioning.
Second, a minor point: in ifup(8) the options are listed in the OPTIONS
section in alphabetical order, except for the new --allow option which
is out of order.
