How reproducible:
  every time

Steps to Reproduce:    
  1. Configure TAHI test environment.     
  2. Run the TAHI test suite     
  3. After the test completes, check for the results

Comment 2 David Cantrell 2008-01-16 04:50:13 UTC
This should be working dhcpv6-1.0.5.

Comment 4 Zhiyong Wu 2008-02-22 07:09:35 UTC
but the test cases FAIL on RHEL5.2 with dhcpv6-1.0.10

for more details, pls refer to

http://focus.brisbane.redhat.com/~zwu/RHEL5.2-Server-20080212.0/20080220/DHCPv6_Self_Test_P2_1_0_8_server_1.0.10/rfc3315/28.html

Comment 6 Denise Dumas 2008-02-27 15:30:44 UTC
In order to debug this problem, we need the test case for RHEL 5.2 with an exact
reproducer, including output with verbose debugging messages from the DHCPV6
software.  One way to do this would be to extract the commands that TAHI runs.
The man pages for dhcp6s, dhcp6r, and dhcp6c all show how to generate verbose
debug messages. 

Comment 8 David Cantrell 2008-03-12 20:16:20 UTC
Fixed in dhcpv6-1.0.10-2.el5.

Comment 14 Denise Dumas 2008-06-06 13:40:25 UTC
This is related to 365661, which is support for multiple IA_NA  options. 
Mitsuru and David have to change structs in the code to fix this  and we decided
that 5.3 is a better target for that (huge change, plus  time required).
