2013-02-06Left over updates of example profilesJouke Witteveen3-3/+3
The netmask is mandatory since commit 4a846.
2013-02-05Move the location for profilesJouke Witteveen2-11/+11
Old location: /etc/network.d New location: /etc/netctl This should ease migration from netcfg and is a better path anyway.
2013-02-01Remove the default IPv4 netmaskJouke Witteveen2-6/+4
A default netmask makes no sense (except possibly /32). Spotted by: Thomas Bächler <thomas@archlinux.org>
2013-01-07Minor update of sample profilesJouke Witteveen12-20/+18
Reduced unnecessary quoting and some rewording.
2012-12-30Forgotten lines on automatic connection scriptsJouke Witteveen1-0/+4
- The services now bind to their interfaces correctly. - Documentation of ExcludeAuto is added.
2012-12-30Drop the Scan parameterJouke Witteveen1-5/+0
It was quite useless.
2012-12-28Forking netcfg to netctl (2/2)Jouke Witteveen20-495/+590
This commit contains the refactoring and rewriting of code.
2012-12-28Forking netcfg to netctl (1/2)Jouke Witteveen8-249/+5
This commit contains the moving of files.
2012-10-15Update documentationJouke Witteveen2-17/+20
We now consider systemd installations the default and initscripts installations 'legacy'.
2012-10-15Grammar error in example conf file (FS#31947)Sascha Weaver1-1/+1
"example" is a word starts with a vowel.
2012-10-15Add support for "options" in /etc/resolv.conf.Samuel Andaya1-0/+2
Example DNS=('8.8.8.8' '8.8.4.4') DNS_OPTIONS=('rotate' 'timeout:1') Will create the following /etc/resolv.conf nameserver 8.8.8.8 nameserver 8.8.4.4 options rotate options timeout:1 (patch edited by Jouke Witteveen)
2012-09-15IPv6 support for PPPoE connections (FS#31380)Jouke Witteveen1-0/+2
This fixes netcfg's share of FS#31380. Proposed by Gala Dragos.
2012-07-26Add a priority option to wpa config (FS#30737)Braden1-0/+3
Pass a priority parameter to wpa_supplicant (if specified). This is useful for net-auto-wireless.
2012-06-24Provide the ability to activate the last used profile (FS#23015)Jouke Witteveen1-3/+6
Henrik Hallberg made this a hot topic. Thanks. This implementation differs from his in a couple of ways. One is that @last is not implemented. Equivalent functionality is provided by using @net-profiles in the DAEMONS array.
2012-05-17Wait for DAD when using IPv6 (FS#28887)Jouke Witteveen1-2/+5
In IPv6 you cannot bind to an address as long as it is not determined to be unique through Duplicate Address Detection. This can cause problems when routes in ROUTES6 reference a tentative source address or when something that starts after netcfg tries to. This patch does a few things: - Improve ROUTES(6) logic so that non-static connections can make use of them as intended according to the commit message of c8be1. - Make additional arguments possible for ADDR6 addresses and ROUTES6 routes, such as ADDR6=('1234:5678:9abc:def::1/64 nodad'). - Introduce a DAD_TIMEOUT variable that governs how long to wait for DAD to finish. - Move IPCFG processing to after IPv6 address set-up (it already was after IPv4 address set-up), so that custom commands can be sure to have working addresses. WARNING: This changes make it impossible to use ROUTES6 and set the address through IPCFG instead of ADDR6. This was bad, unsupported practice, but sometimes needed as ADDR6 did not allow config flags to be used. Resolving this issue should be no problem: you should be able to properly use ADDR6 now. If not, then be a real hacker and set the routes through IPCFG too. Many thanks to Steve Caligo for reporting this bug and helping out in finding a solution.
2012-05-17Fix variable name mix-up in bonding documentation (FS#29918)Jouke Witteveen1-1/+1
BOND_INTERFACES was documented, but SLAVE_INTERFACES was implemented.
2012-04-30Skip http -> https redirect on websiteDan McGee2-4/+4
I noticed most of your website links are http://; at least for wiki/bbs/bugs these are all https so you might as well skip the redirect and link directly to the secure site.
2012-04-30Move the website to a websiteJouke Witteveen2-6/+9
Give users a way to stumble upon this marvelous piece of literature that had completely been forgotten (it was introduced in the repository around netcfg 2.6, but never installed).
2012-04-18add undocumented IP=no option to net-profiles man pagePhillip Smith1-2/+3
There is support for IP='no' option in profiles to have the interface be brought up but assign no addresses. This patch adds documentation of that option to the man page.
2012-04-09Minor changesJouke Witteveen1-5/+4
2012-04-03Leave out javascript in html documentationJouke Witteveen1-1/+1

2012-03-20Just those things you notice _after_ a releaseJouke Witteveen1-2/+2
Nothing special.
2012-03-19Release process changesJouke Witteveen1-0/+1
This commit does not change any installed code. - The tarball now includes pre-built documentation, removing the build dependency on asciidoc from the PKGBUILD. - The tarball is now xz compressed. - News is updated.
2012-03-12Rename -i parameter to -DJouke Witteveen2-2/+4
-i is not a very cool parameter for downing an interface. Change it to -D so that it mirrors -R in the sense that a capital is used for interface-based actions. The old behaviour is kept (undocumented) for backward compatibility. Also a typo (iface-recont should have been iface-recon) is fixed. Lastly some restrictions on profile naming are included in the documentation. The "should not start with '@'" is only for usage with net-profiles.
2012-03-04Overhaul of documentationJouke Witteveen13-583/+606
- Documentation now uses asciidoc instead of pandoc. - Documentation is updated. - More documentation is installed. - The Makefile has been revised. - Autocompletion files must now be installed through the PKGBUILD. - contrib/11netcfg has been deleted. It is unmaintained and duplicated in pm-utils. This closes FS#25587. - contrib/common.hook has been deleted. It demonstrated a feature that the target audience is already familiar with and didn't work anyway. This closes FS#27496. Developers are free to write unwieldy scripts in the {PRE,POST}_{UP,DOWN} variables.
2012-03-01Code quality upgradeJouke Witteveen2-8/+12
This is what you get when Dave Reisner points you at some bash anti-patterns. Also in this commit: - updated documentation - bugfix revision of the IPv6 SLAAC address/route bug
2012-02-23Add backgrounding functionality to net-profilesJouke Witteveen1-2/+2
Known from the DAEMONS syntax in rc.conf, it is now possible to start netcfg profiles in the background. This fixes FS#23934 which was reported by Andrej Podzimek (andrej).
