10 I had one syntax error that totally broke networking on my amd64
11 stable.. Fortunately, I hadn't upgrade my hot backup machine <G>. I
12 had simply removed the bash parentheses in /etc/conf.d/net and got...
13
14 config_eth0=
15 "192.168.123.249/29 broadcast 192.168.123.255 mtu 1454
16 169.254.1.3/16 broadcast 169.254.255.255"
17 routes_eth0=
18 "default via 192.168.123.254 metric 2
19 192.168.123.248/29 via 192.168.123.254 metric 0
20 169.254.0.0/16 via 169.254.1.3 metric 0"
21
22 The result was "no network for you". Moving the opening quote to
23 immediately after the equals sign (for both config_eth0 and routes_eth0)
24 fixed that, like so...
25
26 config_eth0="
27 192.168.123.249/29 broadcast 192.168.123.255 mtu 1454
28 169.254.1.3/16 broadcast 169.254.255.255"
29 routes_eth0="
30 default via 192.168.123.254 metric 2
31 192.168.123.248/29 via 192.168.123.254 metric 0
32 169.254.0.0/16 via 169.254.1.3 metric 0"
33
34 A big thank you to William Hubbs for spotting that error.
