Thus spake Bas van der Vlies ([EMAIL PROTECTED]):

We at SARA are currently switching to flamethrower setup. If we enable flamethrower the conenctivity test is different then
with rsync, from /etc/init.d/rcS


#   Ping test
ping_test() {
    echo
    echo ping_test

if [ ! -z "$FLAMETHROWER_DIRECTORY_PORTBASE" ]; then
PING_DESTINATION=$GATEWAY
HOST_TYPE="default gateway"
else
PING_DESTINATION=$IMAGESERVER
fi
echo
echo "Pinging your $HOST_TYPE to ensure we have network connectivity."
echo



My question is why?


I honestly don't remember why, but it definitely looks like it was on
purpose.




It is fine for me ;-). Still strange that the check is different. Maybe we have to do 2 ping tests if flamethrower is enabled. One to the gateway and if this fails to the imageserver. Just a thought
