Pump is not running correctly on my Linux 6.0. I installed the last pump package from RH 6.1. When the PC boots up, everything goes fine, my eth0 goes up, pump -s shows me the correct DHCP status. But after a while, perhaps when the leasing period expired, everything goes wrong. The pump program is then flooding my ISP with something like this : 05:18:52.287125 0:60:97:ae:70:9b 8:0:3e:5:a3:f7 618: 212.198.115.227.68 > 212.198.0.69.67: udp 576 05:18:52.287125 0:60:97:ae:70:9b 8:0:3e:5:a3:f7 618: 212.198.115.227.68 > 212.198.0.69.67: udp 576 05:18:52.287125 0:60:97:ae:70:9b 8:0:3e:5:a3:f7 618: 212.198.115.227.68 > 212.198.0.69.67: udp 576 05:18:52.287125 0:60:97:ae:70:9b 8:0:3e:5:a3:f7 618: 212.198.115.227.68 > 212.198.0.69.67: udp 576 05:18:52.287125 0:60:97:ae:70:9b 8:0:3e:5:a3:f7 618: 212.198.115.227.68 > 212.198.0.69.67: udp 576 05:18:52.287125 0:60:97:ae:70:9b 8:0:3e:5:a3:f7 618: 212.198.115.227.68 > 212.198.0.69.67: udp 576 05:18:52.287125 0:60:97:ae:70:9b 8:0:3e:5:a3:f7 618: 212.198.115.227.68 > 212.198.0.69.67: udp 576 05:18:52.287125 0:60:97:ae:70:9b 8:0:3e:5:a3:f7 618: 212.198.115.227.68 > 212.198.0.69.67: udp 576 05:18:52.287125 0:60:97:ae:70:9b 8:0:3e:5:a3:f7 618: 212.198.115.227.68 > 212.198.0.69.67: udp 576 Becoz my ISP (www.cybercable.fr) is billing me every data uploaded beyond 125 Mb (and pump sent more than 800 Mb last month) this funny thing may cost more than 500 US$ to me !!! Also, the pump -R command always fails, I'm unable to renew the IP adresse manually. The only thing I can do is to ifdown/ifup the eth0 interface. Please note that two things have changed since I last upgraded the pump package : - now the pump -s always run - not the pump -R sometimes gets locked when pump is flooding my ISP.
I have the same problem. RedHat 6.0 with some RH 6.1 packages, Cybercable ISP, pump-0.7.2-2.
This should be fixed in the pump distributed with pump 6.1. Please let me know if it still does this.
What did you mean by pump 6.1. RedHat 6.1 come with pump 0.7.2-2.
Yes, the problem is not fixed in RedHat 6.1. As I stated, I installed the pump 0.7.2-2 program (which comes in the RedHat 6.1) in a RedHat 6.0 system, and the program continues to flood my modem cable ISP.
pump0.7.3-2 (ftp://ftp.redhat.com/rawhide/i386/RedHat/RPMS/) solved my problem. Thanks to Michel Parlebas for pointing me to this version.
