What you really want is ifplugd.

apt-get ifplugd. Be sure to edit the /etc/defaults/ifplugd file, and add your ethernet device to INTERFACES.

"ifplugd is a daemon which will automatically configure your ethernet device when a cable is plugged in and automatically unconfigure it if the cable is pulled. This is useful on laptops with on-board network adapters, since it will only configure the interface when a cable is really connected. "

When starting Voyage Linux the init process searches for an ethernet device and connected this to a DHCP router.

If the cable to this router is not pluged in the connection fails.

Is it possible to plug in the cable later an then Voyage Linux automatically searches for a DHCP router again?
