 |
|
Hello. I`m okay with just dhcpd without networkmanager installed, so i`ve disabled it globally. After that i decided to review my dhcpd configuration. And i found that i actually have net.lo in my rc-config
| Code: | $ rc-config list | grep 'wpa_supplicant\|dhcpcd\|net\.'
dhcpcd default
net.lo
|
Should i remove it from the default runlevel (as it written here about something wireless i think) or it`s okay to leave that interface as is? |

I think you can remove it with "rc-update del net.lo default". (If you dont have a net-config-file in /etc/conf.d/net.xxx for letting the script do something (creating a static adreess or loading dhcpd), the script will just do nothing.) |

Your listing shows net.lo not assigned to any runlevel.
What is your output of qfile /etc/init.d/net.lo?
I am almost sure it would go away on recompilation of openrc[-netifrc] and unmerging net-misc/netifrc. |

You were right
| Code: | $ qfile /etc/init.d/net.lo
net-misc/netifrc: /etc/init.d/net.lo |
but i didnt set that +neifrc flag manually, should i really need to disable it now? It seems that it`s enabled by default in portage. |

... for no good reason. The USE flag in openrc provides absolutely no functionality except pulling in what I don't want. |

well, openrc pulls in what is a default network setup scripts in Gentoo. If you want to go non-default way, it is up to you to disable it. |
