This has been going on since at least PF 3.5 with the ZEN distribution. RHEL/CentOS store the MAC address in the LAN adapter config info, and create a new Linux eth# device entry when the MAC address changes due to cloning or deploying a VM template. There are directions around the list archives that tell how to fix the problem. It seems like the simple fix would be to have whoever/whatever (person or scripts) builds the ZEN image delete the eth0 device from the image. As for the ZEN distribution itself, I personally gave up on the 4.x version because it left me with the impression that it was only "half-configured" out of the box. Even worse, some of the stuff that was in the ZEN package differed from examples in the manual, so a cut/paste of sample config snippets required proof-reading them to make sure they matched the ZEN conventions. When I got to the point of asking myself what config steps were done and which ones were skipped in the ZEN build, I found myself starting at the top of the manual with step #1 before coming to the realization that it would be less of a headache to spin up a new CentOS VM and do a clean install of the full PF distribution. Given the negative experiences that experienced PF users are having with the ZEN build, I am left to wonder if the package shouldn't be discontinued...both to save labor and avoid turning off new users??? -Arthur ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Arthur Emerson III Email: [email protected] Network Administrator InterNIC: AE81 Mount Saint Mary College MaBell: (845) 561-0800 Ext. 3109 330 Powell Ave. Fax: (845) 562-6762 Newburgh, NY 12550 SneakerNet: Aquinas Hall Room 11 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ One dashboard for servers and applications across Physical-Virtual-Cloud Widest out-of-the-box monitoring support with 50+ applications Performance metrics, stats and reports that give you Actionable Insights Deep dive visibility with transaction tracing using APM Insight. http://ad.doubleclick.net/ddm/clk/290420510;117567292;y _______________________________________________ PacketFence-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/packetfence-users
