Ooo, thanks for posting this hack ("pre-down false"); it's much smaller than mine (rewriting init scripts).
I'd add that ideally you should remove the -i option to halt in /etc/init.d/halt - at the moment there is apparently a bug that stops halt -i working on ubuntu, but it's supposed to shutdown all network interfaces (see #127010). For sleep/hibernate, you also need to stop it unloading network modules in /etc/acpi/suspend.d/70-modules-unload.sh hibernate + wake-on-lan + ssh + screen = teh win. -- Wake on LAN: No safe way to keep interface up https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/44170 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
