Description Jan Ščotka 2013-11-07 18:10:06 UTC 
Hi,
after discussion with Bill and others, IPX protocol is not supported since RHEL5
therefore any IPX things should be removed.
I've found relic in ifup-eth:

[jscotka@amanita ~]$ grep -B 2 -A 2 -i ipx /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-eth

if [ "${IPX}" = yes ]; then
       /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-ipx ${DEVICE}
fi

[jscotka@amanita ~]$ rpm -qa initscripts
initscripts-9.03.39-1.el6.x86_64

please remove these lines from initscripts as cleanup process.
    Thanks&Regards
    Honza
