 |
|
hello, I'm running boinc on my system, every time that I disconnect from my network the service automatically goes off.
is there a way to remove boinc's dependency on network?

| /etc/conf.d/rc and look at the RC_NET_STRICT_CHECKING setting. Personally I use "lo" so that as long as the loopback interface comes up (indicating basic things like networking support and IP are working in the kernel) services will have their net dependency satisfied. |

not good, it starts all services, why do I need samba an cups if I dont have network?

| Not sure what you mean, I have lots of network services like Samba and CUPS installed, and they don't start automatically unless I have put them in the default runlevel with rc-update. Just changing the RC_NET_STRICT_CHECKING setting shouldn't affect this. |

I've got samba, cups, klive, netmount, boinc and festival under default which depends on net.
changing it to lo brings all of them up whether my network cable is plugged or not.
I want all of them beside boinc and maybe festival to be network dependent.
I dont want them up if there isnt any connection. changing didnt helped me achieve that.

| Well the boinc init script says it needs net but if you know better then just edit the init script. It won't be preserved across updates though so keep that in mind. Or if you think it doesn't need to depend on net, submit a bug and they'll change the init script. |

| Gentoo bugzilla I think. Gentoo init scripts are different than on other distros so Gentoo devs usually need to make them themselves instead of using the one from upstream. |
