i think that's kind of vague & ugly ... cant this be done through custom runlevels ? I think you mean having one runlevel using net.eth0 and another using net.ppp0. Unfortunatly I have also specified a static ip adress in net.eth0 for the alias eth0:1 which than would not be created - or this ip adress has to be specified twice in two different files. But you're right this enhancement wish is only a 'nice to have'. Oh, here is an answer: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?p=2528591#2528591 config_eth0=( "dhcp" ) fallback_eth0=( "adsl" ) That works fine no, what i meant was to be able to say to the net scripts 'use this config when i am in XXX runlevel but use this other config when i am in YYY runlevel' ... Ah, in fact that could be a nice feature to keep the network configuration together in only one single file. as discovered on irc, we already have this support in baselayout, and for all config scripts, not just net /etc/conf.d/<service>.<runlevel> will be used if it exists, otherwise the default /etc/conf.d/<service> will be used so if you create a custom runlevel called 'home' and create /etc/conf.d/net.home, you can put your adsl settings there |
Something planed in the future to have a feature like: config_eth0=("dhcp" || "adsl") in the network configuration ? At work I would get an ip adress from a DHCP server while at home I would be connected to my ISP. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
