Recently on a system restart we are forced to activate our networking by manually entering the command
/etc/init.d/networking restart
otherwise eth0 is not defined or active.
Can anyone identify from this what the problem is and how we can resolve this?
Output of logs: cat /var/log/messages | grep eth0
(note that I manually turned it on once login failed to have this set)
