chkconfig network on
I haven't tried that, since the network is controlled by networkManager. The laptop does sometimes have to be used on other wifi networks.
I have both enabled, network (as S10) and NetworkManager (as S27 which gave me the problems. There seems to be some fixes in between, as disabling and reenabling the service starts them as S23)
So, enabling network too, to check if this makes any difference may be a idea isn't it?
change anything (if you use wired ethernet connections)? In which order are the services started (ls in /etc/init.d/rc5.d)?
Not sure this is what you want, but I think it is:
S23NetworkManager S24avahi-daemon S24nfslock S24rpcgssd S24rpcidmapd S25cups S25netfs
This seems to be quite good.
Do you have set up the ip-addresses and names in all your /etc/hosts file (or DNS if you use this)? Some of the services use forward and/or reverse name lookups and if they fail you get these ugly 30 second timeouts.
I tried setting up /etc/hosts first. I always used to do that, but have fallen by the wayside recently. It didn't help in this problem.
I then enabled the network service - and yes, the delays are gone. I guess that once again it is the shortcomings of networkManager that have caused the problems.
So - are there any problems associated with running both the network service and networkManager? It seems to me that they could conflict, since both expect to be in control.
