Description of problem: run dhcp6c -D -f ethX attempt to control-C out: it notices the signal, but won't exit suspend it, attempt to kill, it doesn't exit. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): dhcpv6-client-0.10-51.fc8 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
This is fixed in at least dhcpv6-1.0.14 and higher, which are in rawhide. F-8 has a very very old release of this software. Some backstory... I recently took over the dhcpv6 project. It had been abandoned upstream and we (Red Hat and others) have been aggressively working on it since November of 2007 to comply with all RFCs and pass all TAHI tests. F-8 has the last upstream release before I took over the project. I have resurrected the project at: http://fedorahosted.org/dhcpv6/ I'd love it if you could work with the latest upstream release and see how that's working in your environment. I have been participating in IETF interoperability test session with this software to see how it works against other vendors' implementations. So far the results have been more positive than I would have thought. F-9 will have the latest upstream release of dhcpv6 in it. If you'd like to see it in F-8 instead, let me know and I'll push out an update package for F-8. Thanks.
