I am working in Artix… Arch based with S6 init system I have 2 ethernet cards one connected to my modem for internet access one connected to my local static IP network Artix uses ‘connman’ in place of NetworkManager. So here I am in Artix trying to configure connman and I have eth0 is the sta…

[image] Neville Jackson: I feel now that because dhcpcd has the same problem as ifupdown and connman, the problem is likely not in these configuration tools. Wrong there. I had an error in the dhcpcd.conf file which caused it to not configure the enp17s0 interface. If I disable ifupdown ( …

any help or pointers in this article ?

[image] GrahamLees: any help or pointers in this article ? It is a good clear article. It is about the Debian ifupdown package which sets up configurations in /etc/network/interfaces but unfortunately it does not deal with naming I have the package ifupdown-ng installed in Artix and I use …

My understanding was that Predictable Naming should take care of that. It’s also why I can’t just use eth0 and eth1 for a network connection anymore. I don’t know if that is specific to systemd or not. I found a forum post on the topic for Artix. Network interface names Network interf…

[image] pdecker: Hopefully it’s useful Thanks, it is useful because it explains I now know the kernel sets the etho, eth1 type of names, and it can be told not to with a kernel boot parameter. These names are not persistent udev (or at least some varieties of udev) overrides what the kerne…

[image] Neville Jackson: I think I will try and fix udev OK here is the fix go to /etc/udev/rules.d. there is a files 80-net-name-slot.rules which is a link to /dev/null Remove the link, and make a file 80-net-name-slot.rules containing the rules file from @pdecker 's link # do not edi…

[image] Neville Jackson: I think it is right, Not quite. Connman is still trying to control the Blacklisted enp17s0 interface I had to go to /var/lib/connman where connman stores its settings, and delete the directory ethernet_c86000cb0b6c_cable to get rid of connman’s memory of trying t…

It sure seems harder than it should be. I thought you had it beat by seizing manual control. Sometimes these things that try to make something easier by doing it automatically get part of it either wrong or just not what you would prefer. Then make it harder than the original task was to get around.…

[image] pdecker: Ugh Yeah, my current ratings in the tools involved are connman – unusable with 2 NIC’s S6 – unbelievably complex to do a simple thing like start a daemon at boot. am tempted to go back to OpenRC ifupdown-ng – seems to have a bug reading its interfaces file for sta…

[image] Neville Jackson: Maybe Obarun. I had not heard of Obarun. Based on Arch Linux, Obarun provides not only a reliable alternative but a service management experience like no other, tailored to give professionals total control. That sounds encouraging.
