Hey, |
| 2 |
|

I installed ifplug a *long* time ago on this laptop, and it worked perfectly. |
| 4 |
After upgrading to the new baselayout I saw it had built in support for ifplug |
| 5 |
and netplug. |
| 6 |
Great I thought, I'll let it handle it. So I reinstalled ifplug to put all the |
| 7 |
config back to default, and update it. |
| 8 |
Now it doesn't work very well. |
| 9 |
Well, it works, dhcpcd is stopped when the cable is unplugged, and started |
| 10 |
again when it's plugged back in. But the interface is never actually brought |
| 11 |
down, and that's my problem, I *want* the interface brought *down*. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
Why? IPv6. If the interface isn't brought up, stateless autoconfiguration |
| 14 |
doesn't work. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
For all my fiddling with ifplugd and netplug, I can't get either to work how |
| 17 |
ifplugd used to. |
| 18 |
I've tried using ifplugd as both a deamon with modules=( "!plug" ), and |
| 19 |
letting baselayout handle it fully. |
| 20 |
I've messed about with the API ifplugd uses. |
| 21 |
Nothing. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Does anyone know how I can get it to work properly? |
| 24 |
Ta |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
Oh, and it would be nice if it could pause the interface, rather than stop it, |
| 27 |
but that's easily hacked in. |
