This bug also affects us on a Ubuntu 11.04 (64 bit) cluster Here are some examples:
root@alamba:/client_filesystems/shared/home/install# service networking stop stop: Unknown instance: root@alamba:/client_filesystems/shared/home/install# service networking restart restart: Unknown instance: root@alamba:/client_filesystems/shared/home/install# service networking start networking stop/waiting root@alamba:/client_filesystems/shared/home/install# service networking stop stop: Unknown instance: If I use the (now deprecated?) init.d I get this: root@alamba:/client_filesystems/shared/home/install# /etc/init.d/networking restart * Running /etc/init.d/networking restart is deprecated because it may not enable again some interfaces * Reconfiguring network interfaces... root@alamba:/client_filesystems/shared/home/install# /etc/init.d/networking start Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8) utility, e.g. service networking start root@alamba:/client_filesystems/shared/home/install# /etc/init.d/networking stop * not deconfiguring network interfaces: network file systems still mounted. The last error message is the first that might give me a hint that something else is happening, but it still looks like the original bug remains i.e. that the services networking command does not have restart and stop implemented. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/663352 Title: No way to stop/start networking without network management To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ifupdown/+bug/663352/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
