Summary: failure message on success of ifplugd command
Product: initscripts
Version: 7.06-9mdk
Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: initscripts
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
There may be a bug in /etc/init.d/network, lines 144-145 :
IFPLUGD_ARGS="${IFPLUGD_ARGS=-w -b}"
action "Bringing up interface %s: " $i /sbin/ifplugd IFPLUGD_ARGS
-i $DEVICE
ifplugd is called with -w option, which makes it return 1 on success.
>From the man :
-w | --wait-on-fork
When daemonizing, wait until the background process finished
with the initial link beat detection. When this is enabled, the
parent process will return the link status on exit. 1 means link
beat detected, 2 stands for link beat not detected, everything
else is an error.
So on success, the result of initlog -c "/sbin/ifplugd IFPLUGD_ARGS -i $DEVICE"
is 1, and a failure message is diplsayed.
I haven't found any proper way to make initlog return 0 on success of ifplugd
with -w option.
