Hi. I think I have found a probable (and relatively minor) bug in one of the LTP networking scripts, and I suggest a quick and easy fix. I'm an LTP n00b, so sorry if this question is not germane to this mailing list - I will repost somewhere else if you tell me where.
The 'ltp-full-xyz/testcases/bin/rusers01' script has this line, which I think is problematic: RHOST=`echo $RHOST | cut -d. -f1` As I understand it, this line is cutting the RHOST value to the first occurrence of "." in RHOST. So, if my RHOST was "box034.mydomain.com "box034.mydomain.com" it will be simply "box034" after the command is executed. I am guessing the cut command above assumes that RHOST is set to something like "myhost.mydomain.com " in which case it works fine and the rusers01 script also works fine. However, when I have RHOST exported as an IP address like "172.17.1.34", the test fails because the above command cuts the IP to "172" and RHOST (172) is therefore unreachable. I think the RHOST=`echo $RHOST | cut -d. -f1` line is unnecessary in the script: the script works fine for me (all tests pass) when I comment it out (with RHOST set or unset). So removing this line from the script is a quick quickfix (and works even when RHOST is set to an IP address). I have been going through the other LTP networking scripts and none of the others I have so far encountered use a cut command like rusers01, so I am a bit puzzled as to what it's really for, and if it's really needed here... :) Comments will be much appreciated.
