This has got to be one of the more bizzare things I've seen. Because the RHEL3 kernels are some bizzaro hybrid of 2.4/2.6, I couldn't get the OpenSWAN klips module to compile in order to get IPSec up and running, so I built a kernel using RHEL's .config against a kernel.org 2.4.30 kernel.
However, odd things are now broken, such as anything to do with ISC BIND (RHEL's packages). Everything works with RHEL's kernel. odd brokenness with my kernel, as shown below. Do I need to dig around in the mess of kernel patches, or just be happy that I can do my necessary networking tasks for now and slate an OS refresh to RHEL4 in the near future?
