Package: ifplugd Version: 0.28-15 Severity: important ifplugd ignores eth0 at boot time, making it rather useless. Here's what is in the /var/log/boot file:
Wed Oct 7 03:53:40 2009: Network Interface Plugging Daemon...start eth0...done. and in the /var/log/daemon.log file: Oct 7 03:53:43 xvii ifplugd(eth0)[1781]: Link beat detected. Oct 7 03:53:43 xvii ifplugd(eth0)[1781]: Executing '/etc/ifplugd/ifplugd.action eth0 up'. Oct 7 03:53:43 xvii ifplugd(eth0)[1781]: client: Ignoring unknown interface eth0=eth0. Oct 7 03:53:43 xvii ifplugd(eth0)[1781]: Program executed successfully. When I did a "/etc/init.d/ifplugd restart" after the boot, I got as expected: Oct 7 03:56:54 xvii ifplugd(eth0)[1781]: Exiting.
