Mageia forum

Hi, I'm running cauldron upto date.

I have a firewall and proxy script that is usually started by rc.local

I usually restart the ethernet devices and also start httpd.

I moved away from the network manager looking after the eth devices because they would power down at the most inopportune moments. (to avoid power saving)

Now I have this problem of rc.local not running.

I have the check-box marked to run rc.local at boot with all the other services. not mandi, iptables, shorewall, squid and httpd.

Since finding this issue, yesterday or the day before... I have re-check all those boxes, but I still get no network after kde4 boots and plays it tune.

Any ideas? The script will run in invoked from the Konsole with or without X11.

Cheers, Glenn

Next time, please use the search first: viewtopic.php?p=33087#p33087

My Mageia 3 system has rc.local in /etc/rc.d/
and my cauldron system has it in /etc/

I missed that bit....

I shows up in mcc system/manage system services...

Both systems are different(?) Eventually I found it myself.
