It appears that the boot of my laptop is delayed by postfix depending on network-online.target. How can I change this? Postfix is only listening on 127.0.0.1 so there's no reason for it to wait until my laptop connects to the Wifi network before continuing the boot.
I ran "systemctl edit postfix@-" and "systemctl edit postfix@" and put the below in which should make it not depend on network-online.target. But it doesn't change anything. Any ideas?
is there a loopback only target you can make it depend on rather than network-manager?
There doesn't appear to be. Google searches indicate not.
other than that, my only idea is to dump network manager and manually configure your network with /etc/interfaces. I've always found that's best, anyway - NM is OK-ish for the simplest of network configs but a complete PITA for anything even slightly complex.
My laptop has a very simple network configuration, connect to whatever Wifi or Ethernet is available and route everything through it. It's also a very annoying configuration to run in any other way due to the dozen or so Wifi networks I connect to. -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/
