It sounds like you want the OS to recognize whether you have a
cable plugged in and "auto-mount" like a USB drive or something.
You seem to have some serious misunderstandings about how
these things are intended to work. I know of only a few machines
which treat ethernet cables as "hot pluggable". I'd be very
surprised to find that any version of Linux would do that.
Reconfiguring a live network is not something many OSs do. This
normally takes administrator intervention.

I would like to test both arrakis eth1 and arrakis eth0
simultaneously. hence the attempt to ping caladan from both arrakis
eth0 and arrakis eth1 sequentially.
From arrakis (Muad'Dib):
ping -I eth0 caladan
ping -I eth1 caladan
absolutely, networking is an unknown for me. I'm not trying to setup
masquerading at this point. I'm trying to ping caladan from arrakis
eth1 and arrakis eth0.
no, I do not expect an auto-mount. between pinging from arrakis eth0
and arrakis eth1 attempts I run "./network restart". does the routing
need to be changed at that time as well?
thanks,
Thufir
