Network Manager may be running anyway because IIRC it is run as a
daemon at boot time.
By comparing with another box I see that the working version has
(/var/log/messages)
Jul 17 19:49:25 amd64 kernel: NET: Registered protocol family 10
Jul 17 19:49:25 amd64 kernel: lo: Disabled Privacy Extensions
Jul 17 19:49:25 amd64 kernel: IPv6 over IPv4 tunneling driver
Jul 17 19:49:28 amd64 dhcdbd: Started up.
whereas non-working has only
Jul 17 14:49:27 (none) kernel: [ 8.120950] NET: Registered
protocol family 10
Jul 17 14:49:27 (none) kernel: [ 8.121367] lo: Disabled Privacy
Extensions
Does that mean anything?
I don't think so. The first machine just appears to have IPv6 support
whereas the other one doesn't. Since I strongly suspect you only
want to
use IPv4 (if it was different, you would know) this difference
shouldn't
matter.
I've just realised that I hadn't the iptables firewall script in the
correct place so
# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
pre-up /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/iptables-firewall.sh
was probably falling over because of that.
