In /etc/init.d/networking 'force-reload' and 'restart' methods are marked as deprecated. Specifically corresponding script says: log_warning_msg "Running $0 $1 is deprecated because it may not re-enable some interfaces" A good, Debian-supported way to do this is: service networking stop; service networking start Given that host in question probably lacks a console, above commands should go into exactly one line. PS. Why would anyone would run NetworkManager (better called NetworkDestroyer) willingly on a router is beyond me :) Reco -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
