Description Bernd Bartmann 2001-11-17 19:39:04 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.78 [de] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.9-13 i686)

Description of problem:
Static routes for isdn devices (set in /etc/sysconfig/static-routes) are
not set by /sbin/ifup because ifup calls:

OTHERSCRIPT="/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-${DEVICETYPE}" 
                                                                                                                                   
if [ -x ${OTHERSCRIPT} ]; then
	exec ${OTHERSCRIPT} ${CONFIG} $2
fi     

and exec never returns to the ifup script. So ifup-post and ifup-routes are
never called for isdn interfaces.


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


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create an isdn interface
2. set a static route via this isdn interface
3. try "/sbin/ifup device" where device is your isdn device
4. try "route -n" and verify that the static route via this isdn interface
was not set by /sbin/ifup
