Not quite the problem IMO. systemd parallelizes yes, but offers (various) ways to specify dependencies for proper ordering. This problem is here with NetworkManager that starts asynchronously. Note also that NetworkManager was adopted far before systemd. And thanks to systemd to allow overloading/overriding the configurations of the system *without* modifying a configuration file but by adding a drop-in .conf file. In this case, it allows you to specify what you want for "the network is up". One may for example extend this from: the default: nm-online -s -q --timeout=30 to (the choice I made): routes defined and gateway reachable or to: routes defined and gateway reachable and DNS servers reachable -- francis _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/message/PMTILCGS7ZKRJHO7TJYVRL4QNEIJJPIU/
