I'm running on an unmanaged ubuntu linux server and every time that I restart it takes over 2 minutes to load because of this causing it to delay:
waiting for network configuration...
waiting an additional 60 seconds for network configuration...
Is it normal for the configuration to take this long or have I misconfigured something? After the wait all my gameservers come online on their assigned IP addresses, the delay is just kinda irritating when I want to do a "quick" restart.
Here's my /etc/network/interfaces if it helps, I'll also provide any other files that might be needed to diagnose this.
That looks correct and it is odd that it would wait so long like that. But, you shouldn't need to reboot very often at all (every few months or so), so at least it won't come up much .
Troubleshooting this would likely require combing through boot logs to determine which of the bootup processes is hanging up the network component.
