This might be related to my problem, I share my internet connection using firestarter
My internet occasionally times out and when I try to reconnect eth0 using ifup eth0 I get: run-parts: /etc/network/if-up.d/avahi-autoipd exited with return code 2 Ive got the same setup, one static and one dhcp. putting the suggested exit 0 at the beginning of /etc/network/if-up.d/avahi-autoipd lets me use ifup again to bring an interface on. The loss of internet (only resolved by a reboot) seems to occur only after a longer idle without any programs active, ill try to gather more data once it occurs again.
