??? Where did the 'up' echoes go ???

# ifdown wlan0
atelier pre-down
atelier going down
RTNETLINK answers: No such process
atelier post-down

===================================================
So, am I doing something obviously wrong?

Why do the 'up' echoes not show up?

What's the story about the RTNETLINK error?

Any more information I can supply?

Any pointers would be much appreciated.
Gus
