Ever since an upgrade a few weeks, dhcpcd has been broken. |
2 |
|
3 |
If I start up my laptop withput a hard-wired ethernet |
4 |
connection on eth0, dhcpcd starts up for eth0 and notices that |
5 |
it's got a record of an unexpired lease stored away for eth0. |
6 |
|
7 |
So it decides to just go ahead and use that lease to bring up |
8 |
eth0 even though eth0 _isn't_connected_to_anything_. Since |
9 |
eth0 comes up first, it gets priorty in the routing table over |
10 |
eth1 (a wireless interface that _is_ up and working). All |
11 |
traffic gets routed out eth0 (which isn't connected). |
12 |
|
13 |
I've got to manually shut down eth0 to get a working network. |
14 |
|
15 |
WTF does dhcpcd think it can go ahead an use an old lease like |
16 |
that? That particular bit of brain-deadedness isn't supposed |
17 |
to be enabled unless you use the -E option. I double-checked |
18 |
my network configuration files and checked the running dhcpcd |
19 |
command line with ps. I don't use the -E option. |
20 |
|
21 |
Does anybody know how to prevent dhcpcd from enabling the -E |
22 |
option when you don't specify -E? |
