/etc/conf.d/net Problems [Solved]

for some random reason my routes are no longer being configured proporly on boot.

net has the line route_eth0=("default gw 192.168.0.1") in it but when the interface trys to add that mount i get a host lookup failure.

now if i goto the cmd prompt and type in route add default gw 192.168.0.1 device eth0 the everything starts working fine. I tried adding device to the route_eth0 line but still nothing route_eth0=("default gw 192.168.0.1 device eth0"). No I am not using DHCP on this network, and no i can not set it up to use dhcp.

Any ideas ?

Thanks

Check what /etc/conf.d/net.example says - which varies, depending on your baselayout version. Mine mentions, "routes_eth0=(..." (i.e. plural).

no its route and its still a hostname lookup failure. Just tried default via 192.168.0.1 no luck

sorry my mistake, its fallback_route_eth0 or routes_eth0... anyway I changed it to besetup via my essid insted of falling back and it seems to be working now.

Thanks For the info
