[mythtv-users] gentoo baselayout 2 - restart ing mythbackend.. on internet restart

[Allan Klinbail]

Hi All 

I have a long running mythtv backend running on gentoo that is also used
as my router/domain controller/firewall e.t.c.... A recent update has
moved the system to baselayout 2 and a disturbing behaviour has started
impacting mythtv seriously.. 

I have a fairly dodgy ppp link due to old wiring in my building so I
have a ppp setting that resets the connection after failed LCP
requests... 

Until now that had no impact on any other service .. 

Now it restarts almost every network service running and that includes
nfs, samba and mythbackend... .

It would make sense if these reset on a restart of eth1 (my internal
network interface) but they seem to be linked to both internal and
external interfaces.. 

Does anyone know how to stop this behaviour (I'm hoping someone else
running myth on gentoo has come across this recently)

Regards

Allan
