[Bug 123773] Re: 'SIOCSIFFLAGS: Cannot assign requested address' when setting up ip alias

2008-09-21 Thread gumptravels
Its a bug, if you read more of the bug reports, you'll see that things actually don't work, and actually are a regression from older versions. Specifically, DHCP doesn't work on virtual ethernet interfaces (such as eth0:0), and if DHCP is on the parent interface (eth0), that when you stop the

Maybe if all the bug reporters try the nomination feature we can get this looked at, or maybe someone needs to look up the maintainer info and try and get someone working/looking at this bug. But for now, maybe people can nominate this for hardy... I didn't see an option for intrepid in the list

Using Hardy updated to latest updates as of today, 32-bit, on a Quad Xeon machine with an Intel 10/100 2-port NIC, the following /etc/network/interfaces still causes such errors: /etc/network/interfaces: auto eth1 eth1:0 eth1:1 iface eth1 inet static address 192.168.0.109 netmask

I decided to try my theory of using dhcp on the parent interface only. It works and sends out dhcp requests as expected, if it doesn't get any responses, the virtual interfaces have to wait for it to be backgrounded before they are brought up (not a big deal.. 10-15 seconds or something I think),

Okay, I tried the server kernel on the system with the nforce3 chipset (storage2 machine), and it still produces the following output and does not work: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# smartctl --device=ata -s on /dev/sda smartctl version 5.36 [i686-pc-linux-gnu] Copyright (C) 2002-6 Bruce Allen Home page

Smartmontools 5.37 does not 'cure' this problem on all systems (feisty here currently), even 5.36 works on one of my systems (promise sata controller), but not on my other system (nforce3 CK8S chipset). It seems there still needs to be some kernel patches in this area, or some backported kernel

I tried installing a backport of smartmontools 5.37, but it has the same issue. The 'blacktower' system works even with 5.36 however.. so I don't think its smartmontools related, and still a kernel issue that may need a backported fix if its been fixed upstream already. --
