Hi,

I've never had this particular problem before.  Is this a Linux system?
If it's an init-based one you may want to check the numbering on the S*
(start) script in order to make sure it starts after the network one.
If it's a systemd-based one, then you may put "After=network.target" in
its service unit file.  In any case, that's the way it usually is (the
way the distros put it together).
