I'm not sure how I'll fix this but it's definitely 'on the radar'. I'll be talking about the fix when I have an idea of what we'll do on the packetfence-devel list so if you want to have a voice in that change, subscribe to the list (if you are not already). I believe issues #1311, #1310, #917 and #840 are all somewhat related to what I want to fix. > > Packetfence uses innodb and referencial integrity.

Making this the most expensive mistake a help desk personnel can make. ;) Deleting a node in port-security with an active locationlog record means you must go in and log into the switch to remove the hardcoded MAC from the port otherwise nothing will happen VLAN-change wise. There's a reason why were are a bitch about the locationlog. -- Olivier Bilodeau [email protected] :: +1.514.447.4918 *115 :: www.inverse.ca Inverse inc. :: Leaders behind SOGo (www.sogo.nu) and PacketFence (www.packetfence.org) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The demand for IT networking professionals continues to grow, and the demand for specialized networking skills is growing even more rapidly.
