2013-08-13Remove gentoo's net.* scriptsWilliam Hubbs
It has been determined that it will be best for gentoo's net.* scripts to be in a separate package to allow independent development. This package will be called netifrc and maintained by Gentoo.
2013-02-11Rename shutdown_network setting to keep_networkWilliam Hubbs
We were telling users that setting shutdown_network=YES would shut down the network interfaces during shutdown, but this was exactly the opposite of what we were doing. The default was YES, which was keeping the interfaces active. This keeps the default behavior, but renames the setting to keep_network which more accurately describes its function, and instructs users to set it to NO if they want the network interfaces to go down.
2013-02-11oldnet: add support for shutdown_network from newnetWilliam Hubbs
This setting, already in use in newnet, allows the user to control whether network interfaces are stopped when the system shuts down. By default, under newnet, they are not, so I am making oldnet have the same default. A side-affect of this is that in the default configuration this fixes bugs like the one below.

2011-04-15revert changes for bug #292894William Hubbs
This is being done because these dependency changes caused a regression. We will need to revisit the previously mentioned bug. X-Gentoo-Bug: 363693 X-Gentoo-Bug-URL: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=363693
2011-04-10bring up the loopback interface earlierWilliam Hubbs
For most situations, the loopback interface can depend on root instead of localmount, so this patch makes that happen. It also adds comments to the net.example files explaining when a user might want to change this and giving an example. I would like to thank Robin Johnson for the original patch and suggested examples. X-Gentoo-Bug: 292894 X-Gentoo-Bug-URL: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=292894 Signed-off-by: Robin H.

2011-04-09add fallback_routes support to network scriptsWilliam Hubbs
Add support for optional fallback_routes_* variables in the network scripts. This is similar to the fallback_route_* support in baselayout-1. However, if you do not have fallback_routes set for an interface but you do have routes set, that setting will be used, so you do not need this variable unless you want the fallback routes to be different from the primary routes.
