Description Ed McKenzie 2000-04-06 00:56:54 UTC

On a plain Workstation install of 6.2 with minimal changes to the Client
network settings, linuxconf breaks and seems to want to reload the network
every time I run it, whether changes have been made or not. I suspect this
may be some sort of configuration error, but the logs do not show anything
interesting and the network restart seems to complete successfully if I
allow it to occur. OpenSSH and friends are installed, but the network setup
is plain-vanilla (single card, DNS, no aliases, etc.) and works despite
linuxconf's errant behavior.

More information available upon request.
