net.eth0 doesn't work at boot [SOLVED]

Message

audiodef · Post by **audiodef** » Tue Oct 13, 2009 1:56 pm

My net.eth0, according to what I see scrolling by at boot, seems fine. It gets an IP lease and no errors are reported. Yet, there is no connection. I can fix it simply by opening a terminal and doing /etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart.

What's happening and how do I fix it?

What's in your

Also, do you use openRC and what is the content of /etc/resolv.conf when you boot ?

audiodef · Post by **audiodef** » Tue Oct 13, 2009 6:56 pm

net.eth0 is in my default runlevel and /etc/resolv.conf has the correct nameservers.

Does ip route ls show your correct gateway?

Is anything else running like NetworkManager or wicd daemons?

do you use openrc or the older solution??

What initscript do you use?

Code: Select all

emerge --info; eix openrc

pls

No, no networkmanager or anything else. Just straight net.eth0 in my default runlevel. Again, if I /etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart manually, it's fine. It's just not actually connected at boot despite the standard dhcpcd messages saying it is.

I'm using openrc 0.5.1.

what version of dhcpcd have you installed ?

cheers

Hey Hey,

got the same problem..

To fix this:

Code: Select all

dhcpcd ethX
emerge -av =sys-apps/openrc-0.4.3-r4
etc-update

That did the trick for me...

Cheers

audiodef · Post by **audiodef** » Wed Oct 14, 2009 2:24 pm

So downgrading openrc fixed it for you?

I have dhcpcd 5.1.1.

Hey,

jep... only downgrade did it...

Then it sounds like there might be a bug in openrc-0.5.1. Anyone else have any issues with this version? I'm thinking of filing a bug report.

das bletch · Post by **das bletch** » Wed Oct 14, 2009 6:43 pm

when you boot, do you watch eth0 negotiate a lease? If my box isn't plugged into a router (or if the router needs a reset), I'll get leased an old ip address, so it'll LOOK like I'm connected when I'm actually not.

also, by default run level, does that mean after you've loaded all modules? Did you compile your networking modules inside the kernel or as loadable modules?

audiodef · Post by **audiodef** » Wed Oct 14, 2009 6:48 pm

I do watch eth0 negotiate a lease, and it seems to do so. And this is after all modules, but that's moot because my net driver is compiled into the kernel.

VooDooSuN · Post by **VooDooSuN** » Wed Oct 14, 2009 7:51 pm

i got also my Net inside the kernel, but i recive every time under openrc 5.1
smthing like error at line 510.

If you take a look at this thread, there are def. big changes to the network inits from openrc

Same issue here, gonna try openrc-0.5.1-r1 with oldnet right now.

By the way, I also have a minor issue where manually launching

Code: Select all

#/etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart

I won't automatically go back to the shell prompt, it hangs on the latest output [OK] line and I need to Control-C it. Any idea about this?

audiodef · Post by **audiodef** » Thu Oct 15, 2009 2:17 pm

I solved it by masking 0.5.1. I guess there's a bug in that version.

Thanks, Voody!

xenon · Post by **xenon** » Mon Oct 19, 2009 8:34 am

Both of my problems are still there with 0.5.1-r1.

VooDooSuN · Post by **VooDooSuN** » Mon Oct 19, 2009 10:26 am

Hey Hey,

i just installd the openrc 0.5.2
it solved all my problems, out of the box

maybe u can give it a try

Take care and cheers
