Hi all - I have a Sony VAIO srx87 with debian installed on it for about a year now. I've had no problems with it until I decided to do an apt-get upgrade. everything looks great but my wireless ethernet card no longer gets configured on boot. Looking through /etc/pcmcia/network, I see the following line
.... elif [-x /sbin/dhclient ]; then log "/sbin/dhclient $DEVICE > /dev/null 2>&1" || exit 1 elif ...... fi if [ -n "$IPADDR" ] ; then ... log "/sbin/ifconfig ...." i know that the script ran the dhclient and i also know that it's never dropping into the code that runs /sbin/ifconfig. so my question is why isn't dhclient setting the IPADDR value? the only way i can actually get this to work is to start up, check my access point to see what IPs are assigned based on MAC addresses and then manually set the IPADDR value in my script so that it actually runs the ifconfig executable. if anyone can help me debug this problem or explain how this happens, i would appreciate it. thanks in advance and please let me know if there's any info missing. +ironblunt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
