Package: netcfg Version: 1.59 Severity: wishlist I am filing this against the netcfg package, but it might be more appropriate elsewhere, please clone/forward as needed, thanks.
I am attempting to debug a preseed install on serial console and I can't just switch to another VC to get the log or run a shell. If I could access the built-in webserver to access the logs or ssh to run a shell and poke around, that would help a lot. I would like a way from the cmdline (or in a preseed file) to start the webserver and/or ssh. I guess if set it should start these things as soon as the network is available. Although in my case I use a dhcp config to grab the preseed and then I use the trick documented in the manual to rerun netcfg so I can specify a static config. So I guess maybe these things should be (re)started at the end of each netcfg run? For ssh you might still want to display the host fingerprint on the screen and have the user ack that (which could maybe be skipped by setting a "seen" variable to true?).
