 Posted: Sun Jan 04, 2004 1:47 pm Post subject: Startup scripts no longer say eth0 is brought up... |
 |
|
| The startup scripts used to say bringing up eth0 or something similar during boot. I recently added ntpd and ntpdate to my default runlevel though, and since then, eth0 is not mentioned on bootup (and ntpd is not mentioned on shutdown). At first I thought it wasn't being brought up, but I did an ifconfig and it's there. So it's definitely working, it's just not saying anything. That's strange. Is there a way I can fix this? It's just nitpicking really...if there's no way I can, I'll let it be, but it is a bit annoying, as I like to see what's going on during startup and shutdown. |

| That is weird. I also use ntpdate but haven't experienced a similar problem. |

What is you ouput of rc-status?
On my box I get:
| Code: |
# rc-status
Runlevel: default
netmount [ off ]
local [ started ]
hotplug [ started ]
domainname [ started ]
net.eth0 [ started ]
syslog-ng [ started ]
xfs [ started ]
uptimed [ started ]
cupsd [ started ]
bootsplash [ started ]
ntp-client [ started ]
famd [ started ]
|
Compare rc-status with content of:
| Code: | $ d /etc/runlevels/default/
bootsplash cupsd domainname famd hotplug local net.eth0 netmount ntp-client syslog-ng uptimed xfs
|
They should match. |

All of the services that are supposed to be started are in fact started...it's just for some strange reason, during boot, eth0 is never mentioned (it was before), and during shutdown ntpd is not mentioned (though it is mentioned on startup). It's not really affecting how the system runs, it's mainly just an annoyance because I like to see what's going on. Anyway, here's my rc-status:
*snip*
Runlevel: default
gpm [ started ]
hotplug [ started ]
local [ started ]
net.eth0 [ started ]
ntp-client [ started ]
ntpd [ started ]
syslog-ng [ started ]
xdm [ started ]
xfs [ started ]
*snip*
and my /etc/runlevels/default:
*snip*
nall akai # ls /etc/runlevels/default
gpm hotplug local net.eth0 ntp-client ntpd syslog-ng xdm xfs
*snip* |

Well maybe something is broken with your rc-scripts .. or maybe the services are in some way configured to be silent. Are there any indications of this in /var/log/messages?
I'm not to familar yet with the way the Gentoo handles rc-scripts. It's certainly different than the standard Sys V init cycle available on most other distros and unixes. Maybe someone else could elaborate? |

| I think I'll try removing ntpd and ntp-client from my default runlevel and see if it goes back to normal then. I don't have time to do any experiments now, have to leave for work, so it'll have to wait till I get home. |
