Created attachment 332664 [details] Patch for ifup-eth to start dhcp6c when no IPv4 address is configured Description of problem: ifup-eth is supposed to start dhcp6c if the ifcfg-eth? has DHCPV6C=yes. But if IPADDR is blank, ifup-eth doesn't do that. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): initscripts-8.86-1 How reproducible: Put these configuration lines in /etc/sysconfig/network: NETWORKING=yes NETWORKING_IPV6=yes HOSTNAME=centos52.v6tb.labworks.org Put these configuration lines in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0: DEVICE=eth0 HWADDR=00:50:56:94:5F:F7 DHCPV6C=yes ONBOOT=yes Actual results: The dhcp6c client process is not started, so the DHCPv6 server never assigns the appropriate client address. Expected results: The dhcp6c client should be started and the interface should get its IPv6 address from the local DHCPv6 server. Additional info:
