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?
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.
