Hello,
I own an Ubuntu phone BQ E4.5 and when I attach this on USB to my
FreeBSD netbook the devd(8) launches
/etc/pccard_ether ue0 start
which works fine and the interface ue0 comes UP. I'd like to run an
additional script to assign IP via dhcclient, establish a default
route and restart sendmail. I do this manually as root with a script:
#!/bin/sh
#
# change routing (...) to the Ubuntu phone BQ Aqaris E4.5
#
ifconfig ue0 || {
printf "interface ue0 not found -- exit.\n"
exit 1
}
ifconfig wlan0 down
route delete default
killall dhclient
rm -f /etc/resolv.conf
dhclient ue0
/etc/rc.d/sendmail stop
sleep 3
/etc/rc.d/sendmail start
I found no way with devd(8) hooks to run this script when interface ue0
comes up. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
matthias
