Hi all...i am writing a script and need to know the command to restart the (wired) network. I've searched, and though i'm in TahrPup, the usual Debian commands don't seem to work. I found networkdisconnect in a subfolder of /etc, so i can use that to disconnect, but found no "networkreconnect" (or whatever it would be called) to reconnect.
Thanks in advance.

Hello , this post is quiet old ! but it can help someone :
To activated your connection via ethernet(eth0,...) or wifi(wlan0,...)
Code: Select all
List of all interfaces : ifconfig -a
Code: Select all
Activate the ethernet connection : ifconfig eth0 up
Code: Select all
Desactivate the ethernet connection : ifconfig eth0 down
All same for wifi change eth0 by the interface wlan0,wlan1,....

Thanks, jplt3! I will make a note of that for the future, plus as you mentioned, now the answer is here for anyone else who may need it.
