we need to have get facts do this, so people don’t have to edit, as we discussed on a previous call. is anyone working on this or should I?
Tim From: Anna Sent: Friday, October 25, 2013 8:11 PM To: xsce-devel ; Server Devel Subject: [XSCE] ifcfg-eth# files in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts generated by runansible This morning, I was trying out a 2 dongle install from https://github.com/XSCE/xsce.git. The default in vars/default_vars.yml is eth0 as WAN and eth1 as LAN. Well, I forgot to edit that for my interfaces (eth1 as WAN and eth2 as LAN). So after ./runansible finished, I edited vars/default_vars.yml accordingly and reran ./runansible. After a reboot, I couldn't ssh back in. Walked over to the XO 1.75 and ifconfig indicated that eth1 and eth2 were both on 172.18.96.1. On DXS, whenever I've forgotten to edit default_vars.yml for my interfaces, I can edit that file, rerun ./runansible, and everything gets sorted out. What I discovered is that now runansible apparently generates an ifcfg file for the LAN interface in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts. After attempt #1 with the default interfaces (eth0 for WAN and eth1 for LAN) and attempt #2 with my edits (eth1 for WAN and eth2 for LAN), now I had ifcfg-eth1 and ifcfg-eth2 in there: DEVICE=eth1 BOOTPROTO=static DHCPCLASS= HWADDR=00:1C:49:01:04:27 IPADDR=172.18.96.1 NETMASK=255.255.224.0 ONBOOT=yes DEVICE=eth2 BOOTPROTO=static DHCPCLASS= HWADDR=00:E0:4C:53:44:58 IPADDR=172.18.96.1 NETMASK=255.255.224.0 ONBOOT=yes Before I figured out what was going on, I rebooted a couple of times and was perplexed that both eth1 and eth2 kept coming up on 172.18.96.1. So, I deleted ifcfg-eth1, reran ./runansible, rebooted, and now networking is fine. WAN is eth1 on 192.168.1.11 and LAN is eth2 on 172.18.96.1, like it's supposed to be. What we should probably do is discard any ifcfg-eth# files first thing so there aren't any old ones lingering about to muck up networking. Anna
