Date: Sat, 14 Sep 2002 22:07:45 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <c9eaf5033d2789c70f0dbc9dd2a54e5b@plan9.bell-labs.com> (raw)

There should be a section like:

# start IP on the LAN.  It's commented out to avoid a long timeout
# on startup waiting for DHCP.
#
# If your system has DHCP
#
#if(! test -e /net/ipifc/0/ctl)
#	ip/ipconfig >/dev/null >[2=1]
#
# Otherwise use
#
#if(! test -e /net/ipifc/0/ctl)
#	ip/ipconfig -g your-gateway your-ip-address your-subnet-mask >/dev/null >[2=1]

uncomment the lines

if(! test -e /net/ipifc/0/ctl)
	ip/ipconfig >/dev/null >[2=1]

and you can get rid of the >/dev/null >[2=1]
if you want to see any errors that occur.
