It detects whether ifplugd or netplug is installed when the interface is started up and starts it up to monitor the interface using the correct options. It's been that way fr a lot of years and was documented, I think in the comments in the net.* scripts. Your approach may have worked in the past but it was unsupported, now it appears that it doesn't work. --=20 Neil Bothwick WYTYSYDG - What you thought you saw, you didn't get. --Sig_/cdqmdSiZeBkjV./tfLSaBRn Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iEYEARECAAYFAlZ53ZkACgkQum4al0N1GQP7YQCeJo6J1lplrJ2L7Ud+ZmXe/lrM TXsAoIPUR3KRaLbbY50msALGc2fCNL/i =v3DL -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/cdqmdSiZeBkjV./tfLSaBRn--
