[Grml] Re: Failure mode testing (network)

Suggestion: test grml in this 'failure' mode and adjust the retry/timeout factors.

Power down, unplug your network cable from the PC, reboot. Work for ~15 minutes and you'll get the behavior I discussed. Maybe not exactly, but the point remains, this failure mode should be part of normal grml dev tests. Exact messages are unimportant. The question is tuning retry/timeout factors for various daemons in stock grml distributions. I am not asking for help to fix a grml setup, just asking that you include network failure tests in your dev work.

Thanks
