Description Daniel Roesen 2004-04-04 03:34:51 UTC

Please add a hook to support local network initialization which
is not covered in the normal init script system (like GRE tunnel
initialisation, routing modification etc.). Currently, I add
an /etc/init.d/network.local SysV initscript (with start/stop
sequence numbers 11/89) for this purpose. It would be nice if
Fedora would provide this one, with a skeleton for sourcing the
various network configs and for start/stop/restart etc...

If this is deemed worthwhile, I'm happy to supply such a skeleton
script.

What's wrong with ifup.local? Or are you looking for device-agnostic
things?

Comment 2 Daniel Roesen 2004-04-05 19:59:07 UTC

Yep, the latter. It should work like normal SysV init scripts,
offering at least start/stop/restart, but might (local admin choice)
offer other parameters, and should NOT be tied to any specific
device.

Fedora Core 2 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for
security updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please
reopen and reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a
security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC3 updates or
in the FC4 test release, reopen and change the version to match.

This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database.  Reassigning to the new owner of this component.
