Hi, I have regularly problem so shut up eth0 down. On a few occasion this did cause the shutting down of the machine to hang while the system attempts to shut down the eth0 interface. Thus I end up with a unproperly unmounted filesystem. On other occasion I can shut it down manually. This is what I do to shut it down manually #!/bin/sh /usr/bin/killall portsentry /etc/rc.d/init.d/pmfirewall stop /sbin/ifdown eth0 When thus does not work, I will resort to using ifconfig down eth0 But then '/sbin/ifup eth0' fails. Since the problem is not always present, I do not know was is triggering it. Any thought?
