1 Hi all,
2 I have a very simple conf.d/net file:
3
4 .................................
5 iface_eth0="dhcp"
6 ifconfig_eth0=( "dhcp" )
7 #ipaddr-eth0=( "dhcp" )
8 dhcpcd_eth0="-t 30"
9 fallback_eth0=( "194.199.136.151 netmask 255.255.255.0 " )
10 fallback_route_eth0=( "default via 194.199.136.250" )
11
12 modules=( "wpa_supplicant" )
13 # Users of madwifi add this:
14 #wpa_supplicant_eth1="-Dmadwifi"
15 # Users of Intel ipw2100/2200 (Centrino) chips with older kernels add this:
16 wpa_supplicant_eth1="-Dipw"
17 #wpa_timeout_ath0=60
18 # As of kernel 2.6.15 (and probably earlier), centrino users have to use
19 #wpa_supplicant_eth1="-Dwext"
20 wpa_timeout_eth1=60
21 ..................................

24 Today I modified somehow the first six lines, to obtain a good behaviour
25 of the fallback, and I got it (everything but wireless works well); but
26 since these modifications, I get this message:
27
28 You are using a depreciated configuration syntax for eth0
29 You are advised to read /etc/conf.d/net.example and upgrade it accordingly
30
31 Well I've read it, and I don't really see my fault; so out of curiosity
32 where is the problem (again, it works well); I also tried commenting out
33 the first line, it has no effect!

35 tia,
