Long story short, as I've told it before, a friend began the setup of
a debian box for me (i'm a little overbusy with work and a very long
commute), wasn't familiar with debian, never seemed to "get it,"
eventually gave up in frustration.
So, i'm now trying to decipher the setup of a box with stable r 6
installed. I need to add a correct route command. I assume I'd add it
to an init.d script.
grep route /etc/init.d/*
turns up nothing. I have a /etc/init.d/networking file (se list of all
init.d files below) but no /etc/init.d/network. The debian-guide
certainly makes it sound as if i should have a /etc/init.d/network
file.
I've discovered the /etc/network/interfaces file -- I think I should
fix things there.
Side Note:
If /etc/init.d/network has been discontinued and the functionality
moved to /etc/network/interfaces, perhaps someone should update Debian
Guide. The Debian Guide I'm referring to is Debian GNU/Linux: Guide to
Installation and Usage, John Goerzen and Ossama Othman, (c) 1998, 1999
Software in the Public Interest, Inc. which my friend installed with
stable r 6 -- I've no idea which package or where it came from. It
doesn't seem mentioned on http://www.debian.org/doc/user-manuals.
Cheers,
judith
