Hide Forgot
I have more ifcfg-eth1 profiles in my /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ as eth1 is my wifi. I name them ifcfg-eth1_$whatever. To power them up, iup eth1_$whatever, do take 'em down ifdown eth1. In rawhide that does not seem to do the trick. I have ifcfg-eth1_rh in my network-scripts dir. `ifup eth1_rh' works, but prints some error messages: [root@kovinek ~]# ifup eth1_rh Determining IP information for eth1.../sbin/dhclient-script: configuration for eth1 not found. Continuing with defaults. /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/network-functions: line 78: eth1: No such file or directory /sbin/dhclient-script: configuration for eth1 not found. Continuing with defaults. /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/network-functions: line 78: eth1: No such file or directory done. I see that the device is up: [root@kovinek ~]# ifconfig eth1 eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:19:D2:29:7D:B8 inet addr:10.34.5.161 Bcast:10.34.5.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::219:d2ff:fe29:7db8/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:164 errors:0 dropped:5639 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:400 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:1655204 (1.5 MiB) TX bytes:380792 (371.8 KiB) Interrupt:21 Base address:0xc000 Memory:edf00000-edf00fff ifdown eth1_$whatever print some errors again: [root@kovinek ~]# ifdown eth1_rh /sbin/dhclient-script: configuration for eth1 not found.

Can you attach your files?
Created attachment 155028 [details] ifcfg-eth1_fi Other files differ only in ESSID
When was the last time this worked for you? (There haven't been many changes here recently...)
Well, this works except that it prints a bunch of error messages. I just copied the scripts from my old notebook running FC4 or FC5. Now thinking about it I may have had an empty (or with some bogus settings) ifcfg-eth1 file, I don't know ATM. If I do `touch ifcfg-eth1' then `ifup eth1_fi' comes up without any complaints same as `ifdown eth1_fi'. Either way, I don't see anything bad on what I'm trying to do so IMO this should work without error messages, even with ifcfg-eth1 gone. btw: [root@kovinek network-scripts]# ifup eth1 Usage: grep [OPTION]... PATTERN [FILE]... Try `grep --help' for more information. Usage: grep [OPTION]... PATTERN [FILE]... Try `grep --help' for more information. Missing config file ifcfg-ifcfg-eth1. ^^^^^^^ should be ifcfg-eth1 or sth meaningful But I wouldn't consider this a high priority issue, since ifcfg-eth1 is empty.
Based on the date this bug was created, it appears to have been reported against rawhide during the development of a Fedora release that is no longer maintained. In order to refocus our efforts as a project we are flagging all of the open bugs for releases which are no longer maintained. If this bug remains in NEEDINFO thirty (30) days from now, we will automatically close it. If you can reproduce this bug in a maintained Fedora version (7, 8, or rawhide), please change this bug to the respective version and change the status to ASSIGNED. (If you're unable to change the bug's version or status, add a comment to the bug and someone will change it for you.) Thanks for your help, and we apologize again that we haven't handled these issues to this point. The process we're following is outlined here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/F9CleanUp We will be following the process here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping to ensure this doesn't happen again.
Hey, IIRC I've reported this against pre-release F7, which I currently don't use anymore. Since there's been no progress I've managed to work around this and stopped caring about the outcome. Unless anyone else cares I suggest closing this as WONTFIX.
Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 9. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '9'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
