For the original problem, why not remove eth0 from auto in /etc/network/interfaces, and call ifup eth0 from rc.local?
It appears to me that there are conflicting requirements when interfaces should be configured. I like to have the iptable rules in place before bringing up the outer interface. -- ifupdown-udev integration should be thought-out more thoroghly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/366967 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
