Another way to double-check that is to edit /etc/init.d/networking, look for: stop) if sed -n 's/^[^ ]* \([^ ]*\) \([^ ]*\) .*$/\2/p' /proc/mounts | grep -qE '^(nfs[1234]?|smbfs|ncp|ncpfs|coda|cifs)$'; then log_warning_msg "not deconfiguring network interfaces: network shares still mounted." exit 0 fi
log_action_begin_msg "Deconfiguring network interfaces" if ifdown -a --exclude=lo; then log_action_end_msg $? else log_action_end_msg $? fi ;; And change: if ifdown -a --exclude=lo; then by: if true; then (or anything else that prevents ifdown from running) Then do a normal shutdown. This way to test is safer than the other one, too :-) -- Wake on LAN (WOL) not working with r8169 driver on Gutsy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/160413 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
