 Posted: Thu Mar 09, 2006 9:51 am Post subject: networking stops during boot! (Fixed) |
 |
|
I have placed a previous message on this but have not managed to get it solved as of yet so I have decided to repost in the hope  that someone can help me solve this problem.
My system has been built since beginning of 2005 and have managed to keep it uptodate without a problem till now, last weekend did an upgrade at world level and since then my networking fails during the boot process not sure why.....
During standard boot process the message scrolls through saying that eth0 has been assigned an IP address as expected via dhcp but it fails to set time via ntp-client and this is first and only error on the boot process.
Nows the strange part if a issue the following command it says that eth0 has already been started
| Code: | jaguar ~ # /etc/init.d/net.eth0 start
* WARNING: "net.eth0" has already been started.
jaguar ~ # ifconfig
lo Link encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0
UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1
RX packets:60 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:60 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
RX bytes:3000 (2.9 Kb) TX bytes:3000 (2.9 Kb)
|
looking at both demesg and /var/log/messages I can see no error for eth0 eth1 is not in use at all so reports as expected
| Code: | bocutta@jaguar ~ $ dmesg |grep eth
forcedeth.c: Reverse Engineered nForce ethernet driver. Version 0.35.
eth0: forcedeth.c: subsystem: 01043:80a7 bound to 0000:00:04.0
eth1: Yukon Gigabit Ethernet 10/100/1000Base-T Adapter
eth1: network connection down
jaguar ~ # tail -n 250 /var/log/messages |grep eth
Mar 9 09:25:07 jaguar forcedeth.c: Reverse Engineered nForce ethernet driver. Version 0.35.
Mar 9 09:25:07 jaguar eth0: forcedeth.c: subsystem: 01043:80a7 bound to 0000:00:04.0
Mar 9 09:25:07 jaguar eth1: Yukon Gigabit Ethernet 10/100/1000Base-T Adapter
Mar 9 09:25:08 jaguar rc-scripts: Configuration not set for eth1 - assuming dhcp
Mar 9 09:26:08 jaguar eth1: network connection down
|
Issueing the following command works and all starts fine
| Code: |
jaguar ~ # /etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart
* Unmounting network filesystems ... [ ok ] * Stopping sshd ... [ ok ] * Stopping eth0
* Bringing down eth0
* Shutting down eth0 ... [ ok ] * Starting eth0
* Bringing up eth0
* dhcp
* Running dhcpcd ... [ ok ] * eth0 received address 192.168.1.67
* Mounting network filesystems ... [ ok ] * Starting sshd ... [ ok ]
jaguar ~ # ifconfig

Can anybody assist me in trying to track this fault down I am sure its my finger trouble during an etc-update but have not been able to trace as of yet my self.
Just to confirm i have already checked that the sym links are in place in /etc/init.d/
Many Thanks in advance for any help/assistance you guys can provide

If I issue the command as suggested I get nothing at all back, I don't think I should as I'm not running the dhcpd deamon |

in /var/log/messages or where you have local0 logged. |
Still nothing in /var/log/messages
My dhcpd source is my broadband router not the gentoo box so why would dhcpd log anything |

Try that as it instruct dhcpcd to log for everything it does instead of exiting. |

Could you test the patch on the below bug please?
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=124543
I cannot replicate it and no-one can tell me if it works or not |
UberLord
Thanks for your help with this matter. Can you please walk me through application of the patch (feeling decidedly dim today) |

Then emerge dhcpcd again, and it's patched.
Now restart the interface to load the new dhcpcd |
Thanks uberloard
Having edited the ebuild I get a digest verification failed
