I had one syntax error that totally broke networking on my amd64 stable.. Fortunately, I hadn't upgrade my hot backup machine <G>. I had simply removed the bash parentheses in /etc/conf.d/net and got... config_eth0= "192.168.123.249/29 broadcast 192.168.123.255 mtu 1454 169.254.1.3/16 broadcast 169.254.255.255" routes_eth0= "default via 192.168.123.254 metric 2 192.168.123.248/29 via 192.168.123.254 metric 0 169.254.0.0/16 via 169.254.1.3 metric 0" The result was "no network for you". Moving the opening quote to immediately after the equals sign (for both config_eth0 and routes_eth0) fixed that, like so... config_eth0=" 192.168.123.249/29 broadcast 192.168.123.255 mtu 1454 169.254.1.3/16 broadcast 169.254.255.255" routes_eth0=" default via 192.168.123.254 metric 2 192.168.123.248/29 via 192.168.123.254 metric 0 169.254.0.0/16 via 169.254.1.3 metric 0" A big thank you to William Hubbs for spotting that error. -- Walter Dnes <waltd...@waltdnes.org>
