Hi Andy,
thanks for pointing that out - I must have had an old config, or it was
overwritten - not sure.
ifupdown was not installed; installing that fixed it persistently across
reboots.
Now I'm just struggling with lighttpd untraceably refusing to start up,
but that's something I'm leaving for another day. If I'd known an
upgrade would cause this many problems....when will you start supporting
FreeBSD? :-)
Best regards, and many many thanks again for your patience and help. I
hope the solutions to all my missteps help someone else at some point.
