rc.conf had many things, some of them not belonging to the boot scripts. It used to list active netcfg profiles once, later got simplified to configuring one Ethernet interface (before sysvinit was removed entirely). Was a rather bad place for wireless settings though – after all, WiFi networks can come and go many times after boot. systemd didn't have any network configuration until the latest release, which brings systemd-networkd. But, for the huge majority of wireless networks, plain dhclient or dhcpcd would work as well. However, you need to pair them with wpa_supplicant to actually find a WiFi AP before an IP address can be assigned at all. Instead of configuring these parts manually, I suggest trying out NetworkManager, connman, wicd, or Arch's netctl – all of which can connect to a wired/wireless network and set up everything at once. -- Mantas Mikulėnas <<a href="mailto:grawity@gmail.com">grawity@gmail.com</a>> <div class="gmail_quote">On May 31, 2014 6:27 PM, "Lucas Thieme" <<a href="mailto:l@thiemeonline.de">l@thiemeonline.de</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"> I found a guide for network problems at the german arch wiki.

Given that you provided no information as to what the errors are, why you think systemd is the problem, or anything else more specific, I kind of doubt it :( greg k-h </blockquote> _______________________________________________ systemd-devel mailing list <a href="mailto:systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org" target="_blank">systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org</a> <a href="http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel" target="_blank">http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel</a> </blockquote></div>
