Re: [Server-devel] XS 0.5 Second Attempt at eth1
2008/12/5 Reuben K. Caron [EMAIL PROTECTED]: After doing a clean install 4 times and dhcpd not starting Thanks for the dedication and the report - I managed to repro the issue as you describe below. ... When I cd /etc/sysconfig/olpc-scripts ./domain_config xs5.org It creates the xs_domain_name file in /etc/sysconfig/olpc-scripts/ that's the wrong landing place, as you recognised. The current working directory should not affect us. The patch is here: http://dev.laptop.org/git?p=projects/xs-config;a=commitdiff;h=ae030b75d85fa46962134424667dfa6fb7eba5cf and there's an xs-config 0.5.8-biglonghash.rpm on its way to the xs-dev server. Not quite in the same league as the bonding issue, but a good thing to spot and fix. cheers, m -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff ___ Server-devel mailing list Server-devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/server-devel

Perhaps I can get my hands on the same hw you have. I'm currently testing on two machines. They're both circa 2003 Dells - GX270 P4's. Server A 02:09.0 Ethernet controller: D-Link System Inc RTL8139 Ethernet (rev 10) 02:0c.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82540EM Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 02) Server B 01:07.0 Ethernet controller: Macronix, Inc. [MXIC] MX987x5 (rev 25) 01:0c.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82540EM Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 02) Of course the Intel NICs are the onboard ones. I found the other two in my junkyard, so more than likely they're circa 2000. What's your other NIC? If you run xs-swapnics (and swap the cables too), do things work better with the bonding configuration we're shipping? I tried xs-swapnics on both boxes during my first installation attempts, so I know all four have had the different roles at some point. I've moved the D-Link to different slots in Server A when it was assigned the eth1 role. I've tried using different cables; tried with a hub and without; and tried getting an IP with an AP, a Fedora Desktop, and an Ubuntu desktop. I think I've been rather thorough. So based on all that trial and error and messing around, I think I can definitively report that I can not get bonding to work with any of my hardware. I sure hope it's not an issue with the Dell GX270, because our deployment got hold of a couple dozen of them to use as XS's.
