Hi, I have a laptop running debian woody. I can do dhcp networking okay, but I need to run dhclient by hand as root whenever i reboot.
In truth, this system is usually used in dhcp environments, and on those occasions when dhcp is not available, I have a reserved static configuration that will work consistantly. can anyone suggest a nice way to handle this 'logic' in a startup script? i.e. try dhclient, if fail, then set eth0 manually ... aloha (and TIA) dave
