Package: ifupdown Version: 0.7.48.1 If I set CONFIGURE_INTERFACES=no in /etc/default/networking and disable all in /etc/network/interfaces, then the interfaces are still brought up (even for systemd.unit=rescue).
On bringing up eth0 in a traditional IPv6 network with router advertisement daemon the interface automatically gets an (unwanted) global routable IPv6 address. This potentially introduces a conflict with the configuration in /etc/network/interfaces, network-manager (if installed) and it might have security implications (e.g. firewall not configured yet, mac address exposed, etc.). In Wheezy this configure option is not ignored. I can also delete /etc/network/interfaces, and yet lo and eth0 are brought up, so I am not quite sure if this is an issue of ifupdown. Please reassign, if necessary. Regards Harri -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
