Subject: network-manager: keeps creating and using new connection "eth0" that does not work
Date: Fri, 18 Jul 2014 21:35:52 +0200
Package: network-manager
Version: 0.9.10.0-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

NetworkManager has started creating a new wired connection "eth0"
after/during boot; this connection has ipv4 (and ipv6) disabled, and
thus provides no connectivity.  I can manually select my original
wired connection (standard dhcp) in gnome3 (or using nmcli), but it
keeps creating the "eth0" interface and using it after restarting.

* Purging and re-installing NM does not help.
* Modifying the "eth0" connection to enable ipv4 or creating a new
  connection named "eth0" that has ipv4 enabled does not help -- NM
  will simply create another connection named "eth0" and use that.
* /var/log/syslog did not seem to include anything useful.

I really have no idea what's going on here.  I hope someone else does.
Thanks.

- Felix

I'm seeing this as well. Furthermore, it seems to get in the way of
other interfaces such as wifi, meaning that if you're regularly using a
wifi, every time a new "eth0" interface kicks in you lose connectivity.

To give in idea, currently my laptop has 9 bogus "eth0" interfaces, in
addition to the "right" one (i.e., "ifupdown (eth0)" and another static
one I've configured).

I haven't yet understood when exactly network-manager adds a new one,
but at each resume for suspend I lose connectivity, but not only. For
instance, since the last resume (~1 hour ago) I had to manually disable
a bogus eth0 interface at least 3 times.  As you can imagine, this is
really getting in the way of using my computer productively --- hence my
severity tweaking.

If you've ideas on how I can help you debug the problem, let me know.
Cheers.

Are you using managed=true mode in /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf?

A debug log might be helpful, run

service network-manager stop && NetworkManager --no-daemon --debug
--log-level=debug

Are those duplicated interfaces happening whenever networkmanager is
restarted?

Subject: NetworkManager creates broken eth0 connection while booting
Date: Mon, 21 Jul 2014 17:59:30 +0200
I'm seeing the same problem: every time I boot my system, a network
called "eth0" with disabled IPv4 and IPv6 is selected.

My NetworkManager.conf looks like this:

[main]
plugins=ifupdown,keyfile

[ifupdown]
managed=false

/etc/network/interfaces looks like this:
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
allow-hotplug eth0
#NetworkManager#iface eth0 inet dhcp


I have removed the broken eth0 connection in NM, leaving only the
working "Auto Ethernet" connection. Then I ran 

# service network-manager stop && NetworkManager --no-daemon --debug

Suspending/resuming my system did not create this connection either.

However, after a reboot, the broken eth0 connection was there again.
This is the complete NetworkManager log when booting the system:

FWIW, I've managed=true (everything else is the same), and I'm seeing
the problem nonetheless.

Subject: Re: Bug#755202: network-manager: keeps creating and using new connection "eth0" that does not work
Date: Thu, 31 Jul 2014 00:38:11 +0400
I can assume NM creates virtual 'eth0' profile when it sees that interface is already brought up and configured.
This profile does not exist as a file in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections.

I'm using several named connection profiles with associated dispatcher scripts. If there is a need for NM to be restarted, usually correct profile is restored. But if interface configuration was somehow altered by something other than NM, then after restart it uses this dynamic 'eth0' profile instead of correct one. Annoying. I hope there is or will be a way to disable this feature, as it is clearly misfires sometimes.

Hi all,

I've been having this problem with two laptops, and continue to have
the problem.

I don't know much about networking, but I managed to "fix" the problem
by editting "/etc/default/avahi-daemon" so that it reads:
AVAHI_DAEMON_DETECT_LOCAL=0
(originally it had a 1 rather than a 0). Then I restarted my computer
(though maybe restarting networking is sufficent). Note: I am not sure
what damage I am doing, since I haven't tested eth0 since doing this.
I have only been using wifi.

I stumbled on this because when I am having the problem with extra
non-working wired interfaces, my output of "ifconfig" read:

The lines for eth0:avahi only appear when I am having this problem. I
hope this helps to arrive at a solution.

Control: severity -1 serious

I'm also having this problem and setting AVAHI_DAEMON_DETECT_LOCAL=0
didn't help in my case. I also have this eth0:avahi entry in ifconfig.
Raising severity since we really don't want to have this bug in a release.

Best,

Same here: it is indeed avahi related (I invariably get a 169.254.7.253
address) but AVAHI_DAEMON_DETECT_LOCAL=0 doesn't help. I can now
reproduce it reliably at each suspend/resume cycle of my laptop.
Immediately after resume I connect properly to the local wi-fi then,
after 1-2 minutes, a new eth0 kicks in and kill the network. Opening the
settings panel and switching of the "wired" connection fixes the
problem, until the next suspend/resume cycle.

FWIW, I agree with your severity assessment.

Cheers.

On my system it is not avahi related: I do not have this eth0:avahi
address. However, I do get an IPv6 address via SLAAC on the affected
system. My guess is that the fact that the fact that there is already an
IP assigned to eth0 at the networkmanager start up, provokes this bug.
After system start up, I then have an IPv6 address but not an IPv4
address and I have to switch to "Auto Ethernet" network in
networkmanager to get an IPv4 address via DHCP in order to have a fully
working network configuration.

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=756140#10

seems to be related too. simply removing eth0 entries from
/etc/network/interfaces for most people affected with various 'networking'
problems seems to make them magically vanish.

either network-manager is not respecting the rules, or something else is
happening with avahi, or both and then some.

I'm also able to reliably reproduce this. I always see avahi-autoipd 
processes like these pop up when the problem occurs:

$  ps aux | grep avahi-autoipd
USER       PID %CPU %MEM    VSZ   RSS TTY      STAT START   TIME COMMAND
avahi-a+ 31710  0.0  0.0   2440   816 ?        S    10:15   0:00 
avahi-autoipd: [eth0] bound 169.254.6.245
root     31711  0.0  0.0   2204   296 ?        S    10:15   0:00 
avahi-autoipd: [eth0] callout dispatcher

They disappear when I restart network manager.

$ sudo /etc/init.d/network-manager restart

But then they come back a few minutes later.

I haven't gotten any of the workarounds to resolve the issue so far.

Cheers,

Nathaniel Beaver

Just to add another data point, this bug used to affect me, and then I
rebooted, and the issue seems to have disappeared.

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
I had the same problem in Gentoo linux.
I am by no means a network expert.
I had this warning in NM log.

<warn>      error in connection
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/.keep_net-misc_networkmanager-0:
invalid connection: connection.type: property is missing

So I removed the the following file
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/.keep_net-misc_networkmanager-0

I also had this file
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/eth0

with this content:

[ethernet]
mac-address=10:C3:7B:AC:3B:23

[connection]
id=Wired
uuid=593aa2f2-5673-401a-823b-519d68e4dde2
type=ethernet

[ipv6]
method=ignore

[ipv4]
method=auto
may-fail=false


So I changed its name to "Wired" as it was the id.

The r8169 kernel module was also buggy in my case so that it could not get
an IP address when I was working in my workplace. So I switched to r8168
module.

Everything looks OK now. I hope this info help you also.

I have 2 PCs running Jessie. One PC was affected by this bug, but not 
the other.
I tried to "diff" the 2 PC configurations with not luck.
I also fiddled with avahi as described above but again with no success.

After seeing Keivan message, I check my network modules. The 2 PCs were 
using the r8169 module but the network card are different :
Affected PC : RTL8168evl/8111evl
Non affected PC : RTL8168g/8111g
So I switch to the r8168 module on the affected PC using sid package and 
the bug is now gone.

Thanks Keivan.

I spoke too quickly. The bug is still present on a cold boot, but after 
a reboot the bug doesn't appear.
So maybe it is a driver bug in the card initialization.

I had the same or similar problem, except that only IPv4 was disabled. It 
seems that the cause in my case was that I tried to load netconsole on the 
kernel command line, which I think worked before I switched to systemd and/or 
stopped using ifupdown. Now when didn't try to load netconsole automatically, 
no automatic connection was created, but the interface was renamed from eth0 
to eth1. systemd still reported that mounting remote file systems failed, but 
the network connection came up and /home was mounted eventually nonetheless.

Strangely enough, checking /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules (last 
modified in August), there is an eth0 line with a MAC address that doesn't 
match the current address of my NIC, and an eth1 line that does, but I'm 
pretty sure that the actual address hasn't been changing, and it matches 
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/eth0, which hasn't been changed since 
before the last boot.

I did also rename the connection in NetworkManager, but that should't have any 
consequences, should it?

I suppose it would have been possible to work around the problem by adding a 
no-auto-default setting to NetworkManager.conf.

I'm not sure what to make of this but it seems that loading netconsole was 
bringing the interface up early (but leaving it unconfigured), which may have 
confused NM. It may also have prevented udev from renaming it, but I don't 
know if these points are related.

I discussed this problem on the upstream mailing list here:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network.networkmanager.devel/25377

In my case, the problem was indeed that netconsole was loaded.
Netconsole was loaded in the initrd, and brought the network interface
up. As the network interface went up, the kernel would automatically
configure an IPv6 address via SLAAC.

Then when later network-manager starts up, it notices that the network
interface is already brought up, and hence it decides not to touch it
any more: instead of loading the default network configuration for that
device, a (temporary) network connection with the name of the device and
the configuration corresponding to the actual state (in my case: IPv6
activated but no IPv4) is created in NM.

I removed the netconsole stuff, removed the eth0 network connection in
NM, and rebooted the system, and everything was OK again.

Apparently it's only safe to load netconsole after NM has started,
otherwise you get hit by this problem.

I spoke too soon.

Now I'm again experiencing this problem, even without netconsole.

It looks like there is a race somewhere, causing the network interface
to be brought up before Network Manager is started, and this prevents
correct configuration by NM...

Date: Wed, 11 Mar 2015 15:57:22 -0500
Hi!

I just came across this bug after reading the latest status report:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2015/03/msg00002.html

I have a laptop that has been running jessie for a few months.  I use
NetworkManager to configure the wifi, but use /etc/network/interfaces for
eth0.

I experience a very similar problem when booting at a coffee shop where I
use wifi and ethernet is disconnected.  In this circumstance, eth0 fails
to get a lease (not surprising as there's no wire), but the exit hook
calls avahi-autoipd (/usr/sbin/avahi-autoipd -wD).  This is supposed to
set an ip address for eth0 until it is otherwise assigned, AFAICT.  The
problem seems to occur when setting a route, which seems to be done in
/etc/avahi/avahi-autoipd.action.  This is mentioned in this bug report: 
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=533233 (wishlist bug).

The metric for my wlan0 route was 1024, so I set the base metric to 1025,
instead of 1000, in the autoipd.action file, and my wifi route wasn't
precluded by avahi-autoipd.

I don't know how much help this is, since I'm not really using
NetworkManager for ethernet, and only wifi, but if NetworkManager uses
dhclient, then encounters the avahi-autoipd hooks, the result could be
similar to the situation I described.

Hi Felix, Zack, et al!

I'm not able to reproduce this issue with the information provided so
far or able to conclude what the issue is.. Unfortunately, this bug
report has become a bit of a hodgepodge. I'm not sure if all the me-too
reports are actually the same issue.

So, it would be immensly helpful, if someone can provide me with a
detailed description of his network setup (what interfaces are managed
by NetworkManager, what by ifupdown, what's the individual configuration
and available interfaces, etc.).
Then the exact circumstances, when this happens and if this happens
reliably and how it can be triggered.
Also, I'll need a verbose debug log from NetworkManager [1].

Ideally, someone provides steps how I can reproduce the issue myself
(e.g. by started from a basic/standard Debian Jessie installation).


Thanks,
Michael

[1] That means running NetworkManager (as root) with the following
command line arguments:
NetworkManager --no-daemon --log-level=DEBUG --debug
It's possible, that you need to remove the D-Bus activation symlinks,
i.e. run systemctl disable NetworkManager.service; systemctl stop
NetworkManager.service; <debug>; systemctl enable
NetworkManager.service; systemctl start NetworkManager.service

Hey Michael, I've since then commented out the following lines in my
/etc/network/interfaces:

  # # The primary network interface
  # allow-hotplug eth0
  # iface eth0 inet dhcp
  # # This is an autoconfigured IPv6 interface
  # iface eth0 inet6 auto

after doing that I've not been able to reproduce this bug.

Not sure if this info helps or not...

Subject: Re: Bug#755202: network-manager: keeps creating and using new connection "eth0" that does not work
Date: Tue, 17 Mar 2015 04:08:49 +0000
I started experiencing this problem in Gentoo Linux (~amd64 installation
using OpenRC) around 5 months ago. Keivan Moradi's fix (Message #79) did
not cure the problem for me, and, in any case, my wired NIC uses a
different driver (atl1c) which appears to be stable in my installation.
I think an invalid second eth0 connection started occurring after I
upgraded NetworkManager to Version 0.9.10.0, and has continued occurring
up to NM 1.0.0.

NetworkManager.conf contains the following:

[main]
plugins=keyfile
dhcp=dhcpcd
 
[ifnet]
managed=true
auto_refresh=false
 
[keyfile]
hostname=meshedgedx

In my case, NM usually (but not always) creates an invalid second eth0
connection when my laptop boots. The second eth0 connection is shown as
Active in plasma-nm (the KDE front-end for NM) but only has an IPv6
Link-Local connection configured (i.e. IPv4 is disabled). If I click on
Disconnect in plasma-nm then this eth0 connection disappears from
plasma-nm. Sometimes the valid available connection 'eth0' I configured
previously then connects automatically; other times I have to click
Connect. Either way, once the invalid IPv6 Link-Local connection has
been removed, the valid available connection can connect and access the
Internet.

I examined /var/log/messages when the invalid second eth0 connection
occurs and when it doesn't, and the invalid eth0 connection only occurs
when NM appears to have first run earlier than syslog-ng started
logging. When NM first runs after syslog-ng has started logging, I can
see it launches dhcpcd and acquires an IPv4 address. The avahi-daemon
does not seem to be the cause of the problem if I understand the log
file correctly. I could be misinterpreting what is going on, but that's
how it looks to my inexpert eyes.

I tried some experiments:

1. I commented out the entire contents of /etc/conf.d/net (the
configuration file for init scripts /etc/init.d/net.*) -- which I
*think* is analogous to Debian's /etc/network/interfaces -- but it did
not stop the invalid second eth0 connection occurring.

2. I added 'use-ipv6=no' and, later, 'use-ipv4=no' in
/etc/avahi/avahi-daemon.conf but they did not stop the invalid second
eth0 connection occurring.

3. I added 'deny-interfaces=eth0' in /etc/avahi/avahi-daemon.conf but it
did not stop the invalid second eth0 connection occurring.

4. In my installation the 'local' service (launched by initscript
/etc/init.d/local) has always been allocated to two runlevels: 'default'
and 'nonetwork'. I de-allocated the 'local' service from the 'nonetwork'
runlevel but this did not stop the invalid second eth0 connection occurring.

5. The 'net.lo' service (launched by initscript /etc/init.d/net.lo) has
always been allocated to the 'boot' runlevel (the other net.* services
-- such
as 'net.eth0' and 'net.wlan0' -- have never been allocated to a
runlevel). I de-allocated 'net.lo' from the boot runlevel but it did not
stop the invalid eth0 connection occurring.

[As experiments 4 and 5 did not stop the laptop accessing the Internet
once I had deleted the invalid second eth0 connection, I have left the
'local' service in the 'default' runlevel only, and left the 'net.lo'
service unallocated to a runlevel.]

6. Since the invalid eth0 connection gets allocated an IPv6 Link-Local
address rather than an IPv4 address, I tried a work-around: I disabled
IPv6 system-wide by uncommenting the line "alias net-pf-10 off" in the
file /etc/modprobe.d/aliases.conf. Now no invalid second eth0 connection
is created, and the valid eth0 connection I created previously connects
automatically. I have not rebooted many times yet, so I don't know if
this work-around has eliminated the problem for good.

Anyway, I would like to find the root cause of the problem, rather than
settling for a work-around of disabling IPv6 system-wide. The fact that
sometimes a second eth0 connection is not created and the 'good' eth0
connection created previously can connect, hopefully means it should be
possible to have both IPv6 and IPv4 enabled without an invalid eth0
connection ever being created.

Well, this sounds like you have an eth0 configuration, which is enabled
always, even if there is not link. Eventually, dhclient times out and
you get a link-local address and most likely, the default route is set
via eth0.

I don't see that as a bug in NM, or do you disagree?
On could argue, that this is a misconfiguration and you should use
ifplugd to activate your connection when a link is available, or teach
ifup to fail if there is no link (or simply use NM for eth0 as well).

I hope you don't mind me commenting again on a Debian bug report, but
this problem occurs across distributions and I think my comments may be
of some relevance to Debian users too.

I'm even more convinced the problem seen by some (not all) of the users
commenting in this thread is due to a bug in NetworkManager. I believe
the issue with Avahi daemon generating an IPv6 Link-Local address is a
consequence of NetworkManager not always activating an interface and
therefore not obtaining an IPv4 address, i.e. the IPv6 Link-Local
address produced by the Avahi daemon is a side effect, not the root cause.

After my previous comment (Message #136) I discovered that adding
"use-ipv6=false" in /etc/avahi/avahi-daemon.conf had not prevented
avahi-daemon using IPv6. However, adding the following lines in
/etc/avahi/avahi-daemon.conf defintely *does* prevent avahi-daemon from
using IPv6 in my installation:

use-ipv4=true
use-ipv6=false
publish-a-on-ipv6=no
publish-aaaa-on-ipv4=no

You can see in the message log output below that the Avahi daemon is no
longer generating an IPv6 Link-Local address. However, even with IPv6
disabled in avahi-daemon, the problem of a second eth0 connection with
an IPv6 Link-Local address still occurs in my installation. This
indicates the problem is not caused by the Avahi daemon.

In the cases when NetworkManager activates a connection correctly and
there is no invalid second eth0 connection, the log contains a message
like the following:

Mar 16 22:23:47 localhost NetworkManager[6688]: <info>  Auto-activating

Notice there is no such message in the message log output listed above.

The only way I can be sure of preventing NetworkManager creating an
invalid second eth0 connection is to disable IPv6 system-wide by
uncommenting the line "alias net-pf-10 off" in the file
/etc/modprobe.d/aliases.conf.

So, to me, this looks like a bug in NetworkManager.

By the way, in my previous comment (Message #136) I quoted the wrong
contents of my NetworkManager.conf file. In fact the contents are as
follows:

[main]
plugins=keyfile
dhcp=dhcpcd
no-auto-default=eth0

[keyfile]
hostname=meshedgedx

As requested, I attach the file
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/eth0. Its contents are also
listed below:

[ethernet]
mac-address=70:5A:B6:3E:C1:8A
mac-address-blacklist=

[connection]
id=eth0
uuid=cb3d5786-f947-44b8-92f7-8471fc94c568
type=ethernet
permissions=user:fitzcarraldo:;
secondaries=

[ipv6]
method=ignore
dns-search=

[ipv4]
method=auto
dns-search=
may-fail=false

My current situation is as follows, and no invalid second eth0
connection is created:

IPv6 is enabled in aliases.conf
IPv6 is disabled in avahi-daemon.conf
[ipv6] method=ignore
[ipv4] method=auto
[ipv4] may-fail=false

If I make the situation as follows, no invalid second eth0 connection is
created either (which is not surprising given that IPv6 is disabled
system-wide):

IPv6 is disabled in aliases.conf
IPv6 is enabled in avahi-daemon.conf
[ipv6] method=ignore
[ipv4] method=auto
[ipv4] may-fail=true

When the situation is as follows an invalid second eth0 connection is
usually (i.e. more often than not) created:

IPv6 is enabled in aliases.conf
IPv6 is enabled in avahi-daemon.conf
[ipv6] method=ignore
[ipv4] method=auto
[ipv4] may-fail=true

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Actually, since my last message (#161) I 
have found that, very, very occasionally, an invalid second eth0 
connection is created even in the following situation:



IPv6 enabled in aliases.conf: yes

IPv6 enabled in avahi-daemon.conf: no

[ipv6] method=ignore

[ipv4] method=auto

[ipv4] may-fail=false



So it seems the only sure-fire way of stopping NetworkManager from 
creating an invalid second eth0 connection (IPv6 Link-Local connection) is to disable IPv6 
system-wide.

Hello Michael,

to reproduce this behaviour is quite easy.
During Debian installation create an encrypted root fs, then 
additionally install dropbear.
Due to Dropbear the network will be configured in initramfs with the 
current ip data.

This will cause an already configured eth0 at the time when Network 
Manager gets started.

Kind regards
Maddese

To avoid this issue for now I defined eth0 as wanted in
/etc/network/interfaces and have "managed=false" in
/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf

Date: Tue, 26 Jan 2016 23:17:33 +0100
Package: network-manager
Version: 0.9.10.0-7
Followup-For: Bug #755202

Dear Maintainer,

It occours to me that this bug is still present in Raspbian Jessie.

I'm trying to set up eth0 with static IP.

/etc/network/interfaces:
# Please note that this file is written to be used with dhcpcd.
# For static IP, consult /etc/dhcpcd.conf and 'man dhcpcd.conf'.

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

#auto eth0
#iface eth0 inet dhcp

#auto wlan0
#allow-hotplug wlan0
#iface wlan0 inet dhcp
#wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

#iface default inet dhcp


Rebooting after installing network-manager, network-manager has automatically created a connection 16a3... using device eth0 and DHCP:
root@himbeere2:/home/jan# nmcli c s
NAME  UUID                                  TYP             GERÄT 
eth0  16a38f40-3cd1-4794-a7b3-e86c318546ca  802-3-ethernet  eth0  


Now editing this connection:
root@himbeere2:/home/jan# nmcli c e eth0

===| nmcli interaktiver Verbindungs-Editor |===

Bestehende Verbindung »802-3-ethernet« wird bearbeitet: »eth0«

[setting static IP etc.]

nmcli> save
Saving the connection with 'autoconnect=yes'. That might result in an immediate activation of the connection.
Do you still want to save? (ja/nein) [ja] 
Verbindung »eth0« (16a38f40-3cd1-4794-a7b3-e86c318546ca) erfolgreich aktualisiert.
nmcli> quit


Reboot and see what happens:
root@himbeere2:/home/jan# reboot

[...]

jan@himbeere2:~$ sudo nmcli c s
[sudo] password for jan: 
NAME  UUID                                  TYP             GERÄT 
eth0  84150a4e-91b0-446d-b324-4298ff3b1d77  802-3-ethernet  eth0  
eth0  16a38f40-3cd1-4794-a7b3-e86c318546ca  802-3-ethernet  --    

network-manager has created another connection 8415... claiming device eth0 and using DHCP. It does so after each reboot. I would expect network-manager to use the existing connection 16a3...


No conffile for 8415...:
jan@himbeere2:~$ ls -l /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/
insgesamt 4
-rw------- 1 root root 267 Jan 26 22:52 eth0


Conffile for 16a3... is there (contents OK):
jan@himbeere2:~$ sudo grep uuid /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/eth0

Subject: Sure Opportunity.
Date: Wed, 28 Sep 2016 20:40:36 +0400
Hello,

My name is James, a Trader, Auditor, Mentor, Investment Manager, Logistics Expert and General Business Man, I stay in London, UK. I contact you in respect of establishing a business relationship with you.

There is a certain amount of money that belongs to me. I intend to take the money out of the Germany to another location and bring back the money on a later date for investment and my own personal use. I made this money in the course of auditing a big Investment Firm in Germany and discovered this money as some excesses. 

When I discovered these funds, I discussed the issue with the Company's accountant General as well as their personal relationship banker/adviser. This company in question is a very huge company and has been doing business for a very long time, since 1950s.

In the course of genuine business over this period, the money described above has been floating in the banking system and was recently made known to the Company's Accountant General by me. The Company's Accountant General has been a close friend of mine over time. I've been one of this company's Official Auditor General for over 25 years. 

You may now understand why we need to take the money safely out of Germany before spending it. Here's our plan, we intend to get a neutral individual who is willing and able to receive this money in form of investment funds to be used by the individual in infrastructural projects, real estate investment or trade etc. 

This is just to get the funds out of The Bank where it is presently, to the receiver's bank only. However, the deal is that the funds would be shared into 4 equal places and each of us would be entitled to equal parts of the funds after you receive. I'm talking about Me, You, The Company's Accountant General and The Senior Officer at The Bank who is the company's personal relationship banker/adviser.

We do not require any complicated paperwork or lawyer agreements etc to get this work done. Our agreement would be between 4 of us only as we require utmost confidentiality in this matter. You do not have to tell your bank the details being given in respect of these funds. All we require from you is your willingness and ability to receive the funds in question.

With all these in place, The Bank will initiate wire transfer of the funds to your account. We expect that we act according to the agreement we shall get to in respect of this. This isn't a risky operation or money laundering. Its just a simple opportunity which we intend to exploit using an absolute stranger.

Let me know if this is something you would like to be a part of. If you have any questions, please ask. We would be very glad to move forward on this immediately but require utmost and absolute confidentiality. I'm very willing to furnish you every information you might require so long you promise not to betray privileged information getting to you as a result of this communication.

Thanks for your time. I await your response.

Regards,
James Heer.

From: Daniel Reichelt <debian@nachtgeist.net>

Subject: Re: network-manager: keeps creating and using new connection "eth0" that does not work
Date: Fri, 5 May 2017 03:21:45 +0200
[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Hi folks,

here are some more insights into this mystery:

My "victim" box:

- kvm-guest: jessie, task-xfce-desktop, sysvinit instead of systemd
- running with -net nic,model=rtl8139 -net tap
- connected to br0 of the kvm host which also contains the host's eth0
- the guest's /etc/network/interfaces or NM-config were left unchanged
after jessie-netinstall


In the guest, I did:

# touch /etc/.legacy-bootordering

and tweaked /etc/init.d/rc to display `ip addr list` and a debug login
shell after the execution of every single init script. Now, after
/etc/rcS.d/S03udev got executed, udev modprobe'd 8139too/8139cp for the
virtual Realtec nic.

What *really* surprised me: The output of `ip addr list` after S03udev
finished showed different link states across different boot processes.
AFAICT the Realtek's link state after modprobing is determined by fair
dice roll. I couldn't infer any relation between the link state after
modprobing and

- a freshly invoked kvm guest
- shutdown -r from within the guest
- echo b >/proc/sysrq-trigger from within the guest
- "system_reset" sent to the qemu_system-x86_64 process's control socket

- the link state prior to any of these four variants to reboot



As a consequence I could observe:

- When the link state was DOWN after modprobing, of course no v6 SLAAC
happened and NM configured eth0 just fine with both v4 and v6.

- When the link state was UP after modprobing, SLAAC happened which
triggered NM's "undesired behavior" to "connection-assume" eth0.
(This case then easily becomes a race-condition with concurrent
execution of the init scripts.)



Judging whether this is an error in this specific driver or in the Linux
networking layer goes way over my head. At the very least I can say that
I'm completely baffled by this observation.



Cheers

Daniel

PS: a very crude workaround for this:

# cat /etc/default/NetworkManager
if [ -z "$(ip -4 addr list dev eth0)" ] && [ -n "$(ip -6 addr list dev
eth0)" ]
then
        ip link set down dev eth0
        ip addr flush dev eth0
fi
