Occasionally I need reset the external cable modem/router that connects our home machines to the internet. After doing so, I frequently have to reboot my machine to establish a connection. Occasionally I've been successful just doing
$ sudo dhclient -r $ sudo dhclient However, that frequently does not work. When on Ubuntu I occasionally was able to succeed with $ sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart Trying that on Squeeze gives the warning Running /etc/init.d/networking restart deprecated because it may not enable again some interfaces Web searching indicate that $ sudo service networking restart may be the proper way, however that was unclear. I haven't tried that yet. Is there a recommended method? Is there a Debian howto that recommends what should be done? -- Joe Riel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
