 Posted: Fri Feb 25, 2005 8:01 pm Post subject: baselayout-1.11.9-r1 autostarting net.ethX problem |
 |
|
eth0: e1000 (compiled as module)
eth1: ipw2200 (only available as module)
nothing in /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 (using coldplug in boot runlevel instead)
Relevant content of /etc/init.d: | Code: | lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 24. Feb 22:05 net.eth0 -> net.lo
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 25. Feb 14:59 net.eth1 -> net.lo
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 24259 24. Feb 22:05 net.lo |
net.lo is in boot, net.eth0 & net.eth1 are not in any runlevel
Relevant content of /etc/conf.d/rc: | Code: | RC_PARALLEL_STARTUP="yes"
RC_NET_STRICT_CHECKING="no" |
Content of /etc/conf.d/net: | Code: | config_eth0=( "dhcp" )
dhcpcd_eth0="-t 10"
config_eth1=( "dhcp" )
dhcpcd_eth1="-t 10" |
Content of /etc/conf.d/wireless: | Code: | mac_essid_xxxxxxxxxxxx="xxxxx"
key_PWLAN="xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xx enc open"
preferred_aps=( "xxxxx" )
iwconfig_eth1="power timeout 300u all" |
The strange thing is now, that both (eth0 & eth1) get started during boot (eth0 starts fine, but eth1 can't connect to the AP): | Code: | # ifconfig
eth0 Protokoll:Ethernet Hardware Adresse 00:11:25:2F:8B:E2

On one hand, I don't understand, why eth0 & eth1 get started at all, since they are not in any runlevel, on the other hand I don't understand, why eth1 can not connect to the AP when it comes up (because "/etc/init.d/net.eth1 restart" brings it up without any problem then).
There is nothing unusual in dmesg, but looking at the loaded modules after boot shows the following: | Code: | # lsmod

i2c_core 17680 1 i2c_i801
intel_agp 18588 1
agpgart 27112 1 intel_agp |
For the unfamiliar eye: The modules "ieee80211_crypt_wep" and "arc4" are missing, these get loaded when doing a "/etc/init.d/net.eth1 restart" (I already tried putting these two in /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6, but that didn't change the problem, that no connect to the AP can be established during boot).
Is it about a bug in the latest baselayout, or am I missing something?

coldplug is to blame for the starting of your net.eth0 script.
As part of the coldplug script for detection of a network card, it starts the relevant network service.
The file, if youre interested in either looking at how it works or editing out the relevant section, is /etc/hotplug/net.agent This is the networking agent, and you will find the gentoo section a bit down in the file. To stop the autostarting of net.eth0 etc..., simply comment out this section |

Thank's, commenting the relevant parts in /etc/hotplug/net.agent indeed did it. I now added net.eth0 to the default runlevel again, and everything seems to be working normally.
