startup


What configuration file do I need to edit so my eth0 and wlan0 are configured at startup?
I am using gentoo by the way. Thanks!

Configured? The conf file is /etc/conf.d/net. You can setup your cards and how they act in there.

If you mean make sure the cards actually "startup" during the bootprocess then you'll have to add the appropriate net services to the default runlevel:

rc-update add net.eth0 default
rc-update add net.wlan0 default

Not sure if its called 'net.wlan0' though so check out the contents of /etc/init.d to see what its called.

Hi,

The file you are looking for is: /etc/conf.d/net
