Then an update will come and reset the sequence so that in run level 5, S10network will be executed before S23wpa-supplicant. But this has NOT caused any problems for me since I changed my ifcfg-ra0 to use a static IP address instead of dynamic. All S10network is doing is simply ifconfig'ing the network interfaces. The problems will occur if you interface is configured to get it's IP address dynamically, per /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-$INTERFACE That said, I have found the DHCP over wireless does not work for for me at all - ifconfig is never able to obtain an address. So I used static IP. Now it does not matter which one starts first. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
