I seem to have a small prob when I startup my pc the network fails every other time. I had some probs w/ dhcp starting when I used gentoo, and found a workaround, putting "dhcpcd -k" in etc/conf.d/local.stop ran the dhcpcd -k command when I shutdown my pc, apparently arch's syntax is a bit different so I doubt etc/conf.d/local.stop exists, I tried /etc/rc.local.shutdown, but that didn't seem to do it either. Could someone please tell me the arch way to enter this command every shutdown?

How about rc.shutdown...

if [ -x /etc/rc.local.shutdown ]; then
/etc/rc.local.shutdown
Ok I think if I understand this right all I have to do is chmod +x /etc/rc.local.shutdown

I'm having the same problem. My motherbord has two network devices. It seems that the designations (eth0 and eth1) switch every boot. So every other boot eth0=dhcp is the right one.
Will "dhcpcd -k" fix it?

well using dhcpcd -k in the shutdown scripts worked for me, however setting udev rules would probably be the more correct way to fix this, it didn't occur to me that the comp. has a dial up modem as well as an ethernet port, that may be what udev was detecting every other time.

Thanks.
Altough I find it quite weird they switch like that.
"Because udev loads all modules at once, devices are sometimes initialized in a different order. For example, with two network cards, you may notice they switch designations between eth0 and eth1"
Yeah, I don't buy it. They switched every boot.
I'm trying the udev-sanctified method. Will find out in a day or so (when I (re)boot).

Ok that worked. Had to use net0 and net1 (or anything else) instead of eth0 and eth1 but it works. Maybe a good idea to assign network devices this way by default.
