[opensuse] Howto handle init scripts that require network where networkmanager used?
Listmates: Interesting problem. I have created an init script and assigned it to S22 and K01 in runlevels 3 & 5. Basically, among other things it mounts several cifs shaers and therefore requires networking to be up. The only problem is that the script is being executed on a notebook where bringing up the network relies on network manager executing and establishing the connection which does not happen until user login to kde. So the question for the day is, how do you handle this issue? Any help would be appreciated. -- David C. Rankin, J.D., P.E.

If you set up a connection in Yast NetworkManager will read it during startup and establish that connection without the need to log in. Regards, Helmut -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

So you are creating those links manually? That is wrong usage in a suse installation. Under some circumstances it will not work at all, and under some other circumstances, your links will be deleted. Please use the "suse" way of things. You can not assign numbers. (Search the archive, it has been discussed recently, twice at least)

Use the traditional network setup, not network manager. Yast does it. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
