Re: New netbase, with ifup/ifdown!



If you examine /etc/init.d/networking and the package version of
/etc/network/interfaces, then you should be able to decipher the workings of
it. If you didn't let the package version overwrite your own
/etc/network/interfaces, then you probably don't have the nice comments and
examples in that file. Try reinstalling and looking at what gets put in
/etc/network/interfaces. In the mean time, /etc/init.d/network should
continue to work.

As for your first question, I don't follow what you mean.
