-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, I've almost got this. My dedicated server appears to be willing to boot from the disk, but the network doesn't come up. Here is the service file: [root@munich ~]# cat /etc/systemd/system/network.service [Unit] Description=Wireless Static IP Connectivity Wants=network.target Before=network.target BindsTo=sys-subsystem-net-devices-net0.device After=sys-subsystem-net-devices-net0.device [Service] Type=oneshot RemainAfterExit=yes ExecStart=/sbin/ip link set dev net0 up ExecStart=/sbin/ip addr add 193.34.144.104/25 dev net0 ExecStart=/sbin/ip addr add 91.205.174.230/27 dev net0 ExecStart=/sbin/ip addr add 91.205.174.231/27 dev net0 ExecStart=/sbin/ip addr add 91.205.174.232/27 dev net0 ExecStart=/sbin/ip addr add 91.205.174.233/27 dev net0 ExecStart=/sbin/ip addr add 91.205.174.234/27 dev net0 ExecStart=/sbin/ip addr add 91.205.174.235/27 dev net0 ExecStart=/sbin/ip addr add 91.205.174.236/27 dev net0 ExecStart=/sbin/ip addr add 91.205.174.237/27 dev net0 ExecStart=/sbin/ip addr add 91.205.174.238/27 dev net0 ExecStart=/sbin/ip addr add 91.205.174.239/27 dev net0 ExecStart=/sbin/ip route add default via 193.34.144.1 ExecStop=/sbin/ip addr flush dev net0 ExecStop=/sbin/ip link set dev net0 down [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target [root@munich ~]# It is based on the example at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Network which I also used for my home desktop, where it works fine. (Though the latter has only one IP address not eleven of them.) The system log says that it is timing out: Job sys-subsystem-net-devices-net0.device/start timed out. Timed out waiting for device sys-subsystem-net-devices-net0.device. Dependency failed for Wireless Static IP Connectivity. I tried a few things, changing the service file to: [root@munich ~]# cat /etc/systemd/system/network.service [Unit] Description=Wireless Static IP Connectivity Wants=network.target Before=network.target BindsTo=sys-subsystem-net-devices-net0.device After=sys-subsystem-net-devices-net0.device [Service] Type=oneshot TimeoutSec=0 Restart=always RestartSec=30 RemainAfterExit=yes ExecStart=/sbin/ip link set dev net0 up ExecStart=-/sbin/ip addr add 193.34.144.104/25 dev net0 ExecStart=-/sbin/ip addr add 91.205.174.230/27 dev net0 ExecStart=-/sbin/ip addr add 91.205.174.231/27 dev net0 ExecStart=-/sbin/ip addr add 91.205.174.232/27 dev net0 ExecStart=-/sbin/ip addr add 91.205.174.233/27 dev net0 ExecStart=-/sbin/ip addr add 91.205.174.234/27 dev net0 ExecStart=-/sbin/ip addr add 91.205.174.235/27 dev net0 ExecStart=-/sbin/ip addr add 91.205.174.236/27 dev net0 ExecStart=-/sbin/ip addr add 91.205.174.237/27 dev net0 ExecStart=-/sbin/ip addr add 91.205.174.238/27 dev net0 ExecStart=-/sbin/ip addr add 91.205.174.239/27 dev net0 ExecStart=/sbin/ip route add default via 193.34.144.1 ExecStop=/sbin/ip addr flush dev net0 ExecStop=/sbin/ip link set dev net0 down [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target [root@munich ~]# No joy.
