Hi list
This is still happening in Bullseye: knockd shuts down with the
interface citing "pcap: The interface went down"
and does not get restarted when the interface comes up again. A simple
systemctl restart knockd does the trick, but this is
not triggered automatically when you still use the networking.service
(ifup method)
So I tried a knockd.service.d override that should bind knockd to the
relevant interface with:
[Unit]
BindsTo=ifup@eth1.service
This fails as well with exit status 15.
