Hi everyone, I recently tried enabling the netdump client on a system via rc.conf. However, this isn't working for me because dumpon runs before netif, and netdump requires the interface to have been ifconfig'ed up before it will allow netdump to be enabled on an interface. As a result, I get this message during boot, and have to manually run "service dumpon start" after boot to get netdump configured. dumpon: Unable to configure netdump because the interface's link is down. I'm not sure what the best way to clean this up is. Moving dumpon to later in the boot process would be a POLA violation for people dumping to disk. Perhaps we need a separate netdump_client rc.d script? Thanks, Ryan
