[arch-general] [SOLVED] Re: which package provides ifup & ifdown command ?

[Partha Chowdhury]

thank you everyone for the prompt replies !

upon further enquiry, i loaded both ubuntu and rhel 5 in virtualbox and
found 

1>in ubuntu ifup and ifdown are part of ifupdown package 
2> in rhel they are part of initscripts package.

so i am wondering does every distributions modify some core packages
according to their preferences ?
