network commands run at every boot

Package: amxbase, added for amigaux.

Also by this name: rc.inet(4), File formats and configuration files

network-config, rc.inet - network commands run at every boot

/etc/inet/network-config
/etc/inet/rc.inet

Both files are run by /etc/init.d/inetinit at every boot, as root: network-config is read by the shell after ifup -a has been started in the background, and rc.inet is run last.

They are kept, empty, for instructions written for the stock system, such as “add this line to network-config”. The interfaces themselves, their addresses, the default route and DNS come from /etc/inet/interfaces; nothing needs to be written here for them. Because the interfaces come up in the background, a line here may run before an interface is up.

An update of the base package keeps either file when it has been edited, and puts the new default beside it as file.new.
