Hi list,
I have a sarge system with two NICs. I want to start eth1 without an IP
address and with no ARP running, so as to use it just for sniffing. I
can't figure out how do that.
Nothing I tried putting in /etc/network/interfaces works. The net
startup script always complains about missing configuration and of
course eth1 isn't started. As a temporary solution I added a 'ifconfig
eth1 up' line in /etc/init.d/networking but I really don't like this
approach. I don't think that it's even the right thing to do cause of
upgrade issues.
Is there a more elegant solution? What is the debian way?
Any help much appreciated,
thanx in advance!
