Q: I want to use ifplugd with my PCMCIA device, but ifplugd quits ++ when it doesn't find eth0, when I have not inserted the card. What ++ can I do? ++ A: Use the -f switch. This is not very clean however, since ++ modprobe is called on each cable detection query of ifplugd to ++ load a module for the network device. This is suboptimal. You ++ should probably run ifplugd only when the card is really inserted. ++ 2. Q: I am using the -f switch, but the kernel logs are getting ++ filled with messages like "modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module ++ eth0". What can I do? ++ A: Make sure you have a line like alias eth0 off in your ++ /etc/modules.conf ++ 3. Q: When the cable is unplugged and the interface shut down it is ++ still available with ifconfig and markes as UP. Why this? ++ A: ifplugd cannot detect the link beat with a shut down interface ++ on certain (most as of kernel 2.4.19) network drivers. Thus ++ ifplugd enables the interface before querying the link status. ++ This may be switched off with -a flag. You might want to use it if ++ you have a sane network driver (e.g. eepro100). The subdirectory ++ patches/ in the ifplugd distribution includes a patch for the ++ 8139too 0.9.26 driver, which makes the driver compatible with -a. ++ Don't ask me how to apply this patch. If you don't know, you won't ++ need it. ++ 4. Q: Does it work with anything else than plain ethernet or wireless ++ LAN? ++ A: Certainly not, since the MII and ETHTOOL ioctl()s and the ++ wireless extension don't exist on other network device types. ++ 5. Q: I have a Realtek 8139 based network card. Everytime ifplugd ++ starts on bootup my machine freezes. What can I do? ++ A: This is a bug in the 8139too driver 0.9.25 (at least) shipped ++ with Linux 2.4.19, please upgrade to 8139too 0.9.26 (Linux 2.4.20 ++ or seperately at ++ [33]http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/gkernel/). ++ 6. Q: There are already laptop-net's ifd and miid, why did you write ++ your own daemon? ++ A: laptop-net was too integrated with its profile system and ++ didn't work on my hardware when I had a look on it. It seemed ++ easier to me to write a simple but feature complete replacement ++ than using laptop-net without most of the special features ++ disabled. I didn't know about miid when I wrote ifplugd, but in ++ any case ifplugd is much better than miid. For a comparison of ++ miid and ifplugd, have a look on ++ [34]http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=162763&repeat ++ merged=yes ++ 7. Q: I have two interfaces (e.g. WLAN and copper ethernet), both ++ controlled by ifplugd, and want to force the network traffic to go ++ over the faster one of them, in case both are available at the ++ same time. How can I do this? ++ A: A tool I wrote called [35]ifmetric might be exactly what you're ++ looking for. ++ ++ Lennart Poettering <mzvscyhtq (at) 0pointer (dot) de>, June 2005 ++ ++ $Id: README.html.in 124 2005-06-04 19:22:59Z lennart $ ++ ++References ++ ++ 33. http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/gkernel/ ++ 34. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=162763&repeatmerged=yes ++ 35. http://0pointer.de/lennart/projects/ifmetric/ +diff -urNad ifplugd-0.28~/doc/NEWS ifplugd-0.28/doc/NEWS +--- ifplugd-0.28~/doc/NEWS 2004-05-10 04:50:56.000000000 +0530 ++++ ifplugd-0.28/doc/NEWS 2008-03-07 19:01:01.000000000 +0530 +@@ -1,5 +1,5 @@ + +-[[[ newer changes are recorded in the README file only ]]] ++[[[ newer changes are recorded in the ChangeLog file only ]]] + + + 0.20 :: 9 Nov 2003 :: SVN 71 +diff -urNad ifplugd-0.28~/doc/README ifplugd-0.28/doc/README +--- ifplugd-0.28~/doc/README 2008-03-07 19:00:50.000000000 +0530 ++++ ifplugd-0.28/doc/README 2008-03-07 19:00:50.000000000 +0530 +@@ -1,126 +1,4 @@ +- + ifplugd 0.28 +- +- Copyright 2002-2005 Lennart Poettering <mzvscyhtq (at) 0pointer (dot) +- de> +- * [1]License +- * [2]News +- * [3]Overview +- * [4]Current Status +- * [5]Documentation +- * [6]Requirements +- * [7]Installation +- * [8]Acknowledgements +- * [9]Download +- +-License +- +- This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify +- it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by +- the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at +- your option) any later version. +- +- This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but +- WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of +- MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
