[arch-projects] Netcfg news
by Alfredo Palhares 22 Feb '12

22 Feb '12

Hello, So i started a thread in arch-general[1] 2 weeks ago asking abou netcfg future. Thomas Bächler replied[2] to do something, so I did. :) I forked the project to github[3] took my time to study the code and set a testing/debuging environment. I also copied all the the open bugs to the github issues page[4], so i can keep track of them for now, I left references to the bugs in the archlinux tracker for easy checking. I closed 2 already fairly easy fixes. But on this issue[5] i am divided in what direction to proced and my idea is: Do a sanity check to INTERFACE (on src/connections/vlan) checking for chars that the kernel doesn't even accept because if sysctl doesn't recognize it we should not use it. I would apreciate opinions if its the "correct" thing to do. NOTE: If you use my fork from the 2.6.x branch this bug will not be replicated with the given details due to the fix of a previous issue[6]. I have long term ideas for netcfg wich I will be sharing here.
