Package: netbase
Version: 4.37
Severity: normal
Hi,
I just noticed that
invoke-rc.d networking restart
does terminate DHCP connections but does not restart them. Fortunately
the machine was in the next room :-)
/etc/network/interfaces (as generated by Debian-installer):
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# The primary network interface
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
/etc/init.d/networking calls
ifdown -a
which works on all configured interfaces and afterwards calls
ifup -a
which only works on interfaces marked auto, not allow-hotplug
