[gentoo-user] problem with net.eth0

[gentoo-user] problem with net.eth0

[Daniel Iliev]

HI, everyone!

I had a system lock-up during heavy hdd activity. This caused huge file 
system problems. I hardly restored the system in order to boot, but 
finally I had a successful "emerge -e system". Now I have some problems 
left and I will appreciate your help to solve them.
I can start my network manually but can not do this through gentoo's 
native mechanism. Here is the output:

The problem:
 > /etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart
 > * Caching service dependencies 
...                                       [ ok ] * Service net.eth0 stopping

 > * Service net.eth0 stopped
 > * Service net.eth0 starting
 > * WARNING:  net.eth0 has started but is inactive

The link:

Please, give me a hand to get "net.eth0" back in normal state.

Hi,

According to your "restart" output, net.eth0 sarts at boot runlevel, it
should start at default runlevel. Check this with 'rc-update -s'

If it really starts during boot runlevel, try the following :

> rc-update del net.eth0
> rc-update add net.eth0 default

Then restart the system.

Actually net.eth0 was installed in both runlevels.
I did:
 rc-update -d net.eth0
 rc-update -a net.eth0 default
 reboot

The result is the same - the same output from "net.eth0 restart" and the 
interface is inactive until I manually give it IP addresses, bring it up 
and  set a default route using the "ip" command from iproute2 package.

In a few words: the problem is still here ;-(

Do you have ifplugd or netplug installed? This is the message I get when
bringing up my wired interface with no cable connected. If that's the
case you have nothing to worry about, the interface will be activated
when a link beat is detected on the cable.

No, none of those is installed:


eix netplug
* sys-apps/netplug
     Available versions:  1.2.9-r2 ~1.2.9-r3
     Installed:           none

eix ifplugd
* sys-apps/ifplugd
     Available versions:  0.28-r5 0.28-r6 ~0.28-r7
     Installed:           none

Hans-Werner Hilse, thank you!

The idea was enough - dmesg shows nothing, but /var/log/messages had 
lines like this:
"netplugd[1026]: /etc/netplug.d/netplug eth0 in -> pid 1026"

According to eix netplug wasn't merged, but there were some files from 
that package. So the problem was solved as follows:

emerge netplug
qlist netplug | xargs -n1 unlink
emerge -C netplug

Now net.eth0 works as usual.


Thanks, guys!

[gentoo-user] Problem with net.eth0

[Goldwyn Rodrigues]

Hi,

I updated the installed packages, which includes baselayout. However,
restarting a the network, I get the error:

hydrauser5 ~ # /etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart
 * Caching service dependencies ...
                                                             [ ok
]/etc/init.d/net.eth0: line 34:

hydrauser5 ~ # equery belongs /etc/init.d/net.eth0
[ Searching for file(s) /etc/init.d/net.eth0 in *... ]
sys-apps/baselayout-1.12.4-r7 (/etc/init.d/net.eth0 -> net.lo)

What packages am I missing or have misconfigured?

Perhaps you forgot etc-update?
