I can confirm that something is definitely wrong with wired (at least)
connectivity in Jaunty. Did not experience this in Gutsy, Hardy or
Intrepid. I have three desktop machines which are connected by wire to
the Internet. Over the last few days, each one of these has disconnected
from the 'net and is dead in the water. Of course, I can't SSH in to
restart them, so I need to get physical access to them. Here is what I
found in syslog:
May 4 03:37:40 XXX NetworkManager: <info> DHCP: device eth0 state changed
renew -> expire
May 4 03:37:40 XXX dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67

May 4 03:37:40 XXX NetworkManager: <info> DHCP: device eth0 state changed

interval 9
May 4 03:38:41 XXX dhclient: No DHCPOFFERS received.
May 4 03:38:41 XXX dhclient: No working leases in persistent database -
sleeping.
May 4 03:38:41 XXX NetworkManager: <info> DHCP: device eth0 state changed
preinit -> fail
May 4 03:38:41 XXX NetworkManager: <info> (eth0): device state change: 8 -> 9
May 4 03:38:41 XXX NetworkManager: <info> Marking connection 'Auto eth0'
invalid.
May 4 03:38:41 XXX NetworkManager: <info> Activation (eth0) failed.
May 4 03:38:41 XXX NetworkManager: <info> (eth0): device state change: 9 -> 3
May 4 03:38:41 XXX NetworkManager: <info> (eth0): deactivating device
(reason: 0).
It seems that something goes wrong when the IP address is being renewed?
I think this only happens on idle connections.
