You totally missed the problem, so I try to explain again. The problem is that the ovs-vswitchd is started much too late in the boot process (in runlevel 2), so it is not available when debian starts the networking setup at boot time (started early in rulevel S). is that more clear now? _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
