[Voyage-linux] bringing an interface up when it becomes available

[Olivier Lacelle]

I went through this recently and ended up installing the dhcp3-client
package which does a better job at that than pump.
I had also tried the ifplugd package which also helps, but I stuck with
dhcp3-client in the end.

Subject: [Voyage-linux] bringing an interface up when it becomes available


Is there a way to configure voyage such that an interface is automatically
brought up when the link state changes? For example, let's say the machine
boots but doesn't have a physical connection to the network. After boot,
an ethernet cable is connected.

How would I set things up so that the interface is brought up and configured
(or dhcp/pump run) without user interaction?

Thanks.
