I have created the bug report below but didn't get any comments. Perhaps, some here on this list has an idea how to debug the problem. Here my bug report sys-apps/openrc (0.11.8 and earlier) doesn't play well with wlan without dhcp, i.e. This does work just fine : modules="wpa_supplicant" wpa_supplicant_wlan0="-Dwext -iwlan0" config_wlan0="dhcp" but when I try to assign fixed IPs (for a small fixed net) like modules="wpa_supplicant" wpa_supplicant_wlan0="-Dwext -iwlan0" config_wlan0="192.168.1.3 netmsk 255.255.255.0" routes_wlan0="default via 192.168.1.1" dns_servers_wlan0="192.168.1.1" dns_domain_wlan0="skynet.be" The default route gateway is NOT set. Even if I set it afterwards, e.g. within /etc/local.d/local.start, it still doesn't "supply" net, as xinetd won't start (scheduled for start when net is ready or similar) Only if I supply rc_provide="net" in /etc/rc.conf it becomes usable. /etc/init.d/net.wlan0 status shows "inactive" How can I debug this? Many thanks for a hint, Helmut.
