So what exactly is the problem? I _know_ it works since I have
several systems using busybox's ifup/ifdown and they work. If
busybox compiles and is installed correctly, you just need to
supply a proper /etc/network/interfaces file and run 'ifup -a'...
Here is a simple example showing some of the things
you can do with your interfaces file....
# /etc/network/interfaces configuration file
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 10.0.0.2
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 10.0.0.0
broadcast 10.0.0.255
gateway 10.0.0.1
up /etc/init.d/firewall start
down /etc/init.d/firewall stop
noauto eth1
iface eth1 inet dhcp
auto tun0
iface tun0 inet static
up /etc/init.d/S85vtun start
down /etc/init.d/S85vtun stop
