Thank you Neil, I just tried netplug and indeed behaves the same as ifplugd= -=20 one has to start the interface before netplug will configure a connection. Interestingly, there is a difference between netplug and ifplugd. ifplugd= =20 when started by hand, will initialise and configure a NIC. netplug will no= t. =20 It requires that the interface has been enabled before it does anything. =2D-=20 Regards, Mick --nextPart2131905.4JvpTNTTBr Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQEcBAABCAAGBQJWen5mAAoJELAdA+zwE4YeC3UH/jOLady7ALKLcTJrPq+eST9u yPfdRMIa6Vb5pXp77FRculGAlhTeTLq2Y48O751QIAzmtvoRFTTNPd37DEZNT3sJ d4kBIrQrYA7GKNZraKTb5GVg9lWMKJ58RHv43aO00Zc+Tp6v7zZW86xGVPwaSO0N SSK57Xndu3xyPNLPrlNxtJUVE6QVWI7YFXATthroYTJpnU//ln4OEUMJphjcs0jg epk5uaCfT3k5u7o6Cm7GDSiCgj1E4vmAdtzQUxgpRCvJNhoOe4KtGPWkcZ4K61Ui p3Z9Bicsk4iRfUyl/005QDo0kRA2gTU4MrjPNQ2sVAdLfhyNABS/1JmAtqfa+IY= =fnTm -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart2131905.4JvpTNTTBr--
