Hi, i have used debian almost two years, woody and sid. Debian don't uses
service xxxx start/stop. It was my first trouble migrating from mandrake.
Instead, debian uses /etc/init.d/xxx start/stop. For example, in
redhat/mandrake, to run apache was: service apache start, in debian:
/etc/init.d/apache start.

And, /etc/init.d/networking start/stop, was what i used to get up and down
my network interfaces. Allways worked for me.
