Description of Problem: Cofigure ifcfg-tr0 by hand and set the boot protocol to "dhcp". Run ifup tr0 and dhcp replys with: dhcpStart: Interface tr0 is not Ethernet or 802.2 Token Ring. Static IP works fine. dhcp for tr0 previously worked in 7.1 but I do not recall if it was using pump or dhcpcd packages. (Which was the default install???) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): dhcpcd-1.3.18p18-13 How Reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: See above
I was able to get pump-0.8.11-6 from the beta site and test again with tr0 and dhcp. Using pump tr0 works when set to use dhcp. Using dhcpcd tr0 does not work properly. (See previous error message). Is there a reson that dhcpcd has replaced pump in 7.2 or is it possible to install both pump and dhcpcd and have tr0 interface default to pump while dhcpcd is used for all other interfaces as it is now? This could be quick hack in the ifup / ifdown scripts to read the existing TYPE var in ifcfg-trX and if it matches 'Token Ring' to use pump. All other scripts would use dhcpcd.
Still waiting on RH for test case fixes to this bug.
Is there a problem with just only installing pump on the affected machines?
Problem is an out of box issue. it would be easy to install pump and dhcpcd and use one or the other based on the interface (trX vs ethX). That said, closing this 7.2 bug. Will investigate under skipjack public beta and reopen if needed.
