3.28. initscripts
Updated initscripts packages that fix two bugs and add one enhancement are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.
The initscripts packages contain basic system scripts to boot the system, change runlevels, activate and deactivate most network interfaces, and shut down the system cleanly.
Bug Fixes
- BZ#1055573
- Previously, the source code did not handle the network interface controller (NIC) coming up on layer 2 appropriately, which caused a race condition. As a consequence, the ifup-eth scripts failed to determine if a duplicate IP address existed. After this update, the user can now set a value of the "-w" option of the arping command to specify a timeout, and duplicate IP addresses are detected as expected.
- BZ#836679
- Prior to this update, the rc.sysinit script did not appropriately verify the conditions before executing the init_crypto() function. Consequently, a harmless error message was displayed when booting with an encrypted logical volume. With this update, rc.sysinit verifies the existence of the block devices listed in the /etc/crypttab file, and the error message no longer appears.
In addition, this update adds the following
Enhancement
- BZ#662617
- The bridge configuration options have been enhanced by adding a possibility to set bridge priorities and aging in a standardized way.
Users of initscripts are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix these bugs and add this enhancement.
