Hi, I forward a message that I sent to Morphix mailing list, maybe somebody here will be faster to answer: ----------------------------------------------------------------------- I've always used Morphix (0.5pre5) with a running DHCPD in the LAN, and its networking has worked perfectly.
Yesterday I tried with no DHCP server. When I did it manually, either by the "ifconfig" command, or by editing "/etc/network/interfaces" + running "/etc/init.d/networking restart", it worked perfectly. Then I tried to do it through a mini-module boot command (I don't know the exact terminology, but I'm talking about the commands that Morphix executes when it is loading a mini-module, which were defined by option #2 of minimod-gen). It didn't work by either of the ways (neither by the same ifconfig command which worked manually, nor by changing /etc/network/interfaces and restarting /etc/init.d/networking). I went on, checked the interface, and found out that everything was defined correctly, but "somebody" turned off eth0, so its definitions were correct, but it was not active. I checked further, by inserting logging into my script (the script that was called in the initialization of my mini-module. This script had 2 versions: one with ifconfig, and the other with modifications to /etc/network/interfaces + restarting of /etc/init.d/networking). I logged the output of basic networking commands such as "ping", to a temporary file. In both of the versions of the script, the output of the logging was perfect. So the clear conclusion is that "somebody" screws it up (or, actually, down...) after my script (i.e. my mini-module) is called. How can I find the "criminal" scipt? (or isn't it a script?)
