Description Chris Howard 2006-06-22 15:44:09 UTC
Description of problem:


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

initscripts-8.31.1-1

How reproducible:

always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. use the gui to give wan0 a nickname, save setup
2. ifup WireLessNickname
3.
  
Actual results:

Determining IP information for wlan0.../sbin/dhclient-script: configuration for
wlan0 not found. Continuing with
defaults./etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/network-functions: line 62: wlan0: No
such file or directory
/sbin/dhclient-script: configuration for wlan0 not found. Continuing with defaults.
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/network-functions: line 62: wlan0: No such file
or directory
 done.


Expected results:

(It works just fine when there is no nickname)

Determining IP information for wlan0...
 done.


Additional info:

I'd guess it's in the ifup-wireless script.  It doesn't appear to be
a problem with eth? network devices.

Comment 1 Chris Howard 2006-06-22 15:57:23 UTC
I should add that with my particular wlan0 configuration, even though
I get the error messages my wireless connection does function.

Comment 2 Chris Howard 2006-06-23 21:50:51 UTC
I was wrong.  My wired network connections give the same symptoms
when I use nicknames with them.

So, this really doesn't seem to have any relationship to wired
or wireless.

Comment 3 Chris Howard 2006-06-23 21:52:16 UTC
Maybe I should also note that this system the result of an update
from FC3
