Re: [gentoo-user] static addr in /etc/conf.d/net ignored, dhcp used. dhcpcd crashes when forced

[n952162]

I just ran into this, from  https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Dhcpcd


          /Static IP addresses/

    //

    /In case the network interface card should be configured with a
    //static IP address <https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Static_Routing>//,
    add their data to ///etc/dhcpcd.conf//.//^[1]
    <https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Dhcpcd#cite_note-manpage-1> //The
    following is an example of manually adding a static address, routes,
    and DNS by editing DHCPCD's configuration file using a text editor
    of choice: /

    //
    /FILE////*|/etc/dhcpcd.conf|*//**/

    /static ip_address=192.168.0.10/24/


(haven't tried it yet, my system is busy right now).

So, what is /etc/conf.d/net for?  What programs read it?
