From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.7) Gecko/20011226 Description of problem: The /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-cipcb script checks for configuration in both /etc/cipe/options.<interface> and /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-<interface>. It constructs options which it feeds to /usr/sbin/ciped-cb on the command line. In the case where a full configuration is specified in both places, the $ME information on the command line ends up broken. The problem is illustrated by the fragment: if [ -z "$ME" ] && ! grep "^me[ ]" $cipeconfig > /dev/null; then ME=0.0.0.0 # ME=$(/sbin/findroute `echo ${PEER} | sed 's/:.*//'` 2> /dev/null) if [ -z "$ME" ]; then echo "Unable to find a suitable route to peer ${PEER}" exit 1 fi fi if [ -n "$MYPORT" ]; then ME="${ME}:${MYPORT}" fi If 'me' is specified in the options file *and* in the ifcfg file, the variable 'ME' will end up set to something like ":$MYPORT". Since the value on the command line overrides the value in the options file, this will cause it to fail. Curiously, in order for the PEER to work, it must be specified as host:port - this is inconsistent with the ME/MYPORT specification for the local end.
