From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.8+) Gecko/20020301 Description of problem: For every isdnconnection involving ippp the default gateway option will be passed to ippp (via the ifup-ippp script). Even if the ifcfg-ippp0 file contains the definition DEFROUTE="no". For a specific connection I want to leave the default gateway as is and will setup a specific rooute to the network on the other side of the ppp connection. I see in the ipcfg-ippp script that the 'defaultroute' option is ALWAYS added to the list of ppp options. Earlier in the script the optien 'deldefaultroute' as added depending on the value of the DEFROUTE variable. Therefor I think the following patch could be applied to the ifcfg-ippp script: --- ifup-ippp.org Fri May 31 13:36:44 2002 +++ ifup-ippp Fri May 31 13:37:08 2002 @@ -257,7 +257,7 @@ fi # Add default route while connection - options="$options defaultroute" + [ "$DEFROUTE" = "yes" ] && options="$options defaultroute" # Van Jacobson style TCP/IP header compression and # VJ connection-ID compression -Marcel Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.define a new connection using isdn 2.make sure the DEFROUTE variable is set to no 3.start isdn connection 4. check routing table and verify the defautl route Actual Results: The defautl route is changed to the ippp connection Expected Results: The default route should have stayed at its normal device, e.g. the interface that is connected to the internet. Additional info:
It's fixed in isdn4k-utils-3.1-53 or in redhat 7.3.
Are you sure it is solved in isdn4k-utils-3.1-53. The diff was actually taken from a redhat 7.3 system with that version of isdn4k-utils. The ifup-ippp script at line 259 still has just # Add default route while connection options="$options defaultroute" -MArcel
Wrong component: should be initscripts (6.67-1). It's not fixed in Valhalla. /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-ippp, line 260 does not contain the DEFROUTE=yes check. Only option deldefaultroute in line 110 contains that check. If I were the reporter, I'd reopen this bug report.
Right, as suggested by mschwendt, i reopen the bugreport. Guess I forgot to when adding the previous comment. Indeed the ifup-ippp script is patrt of initscript instead of isdn4k-utils, so I changed the component field..
And of course, this report refers to Version 7.3 of Red Hat Linux.
oh i have overlooked! It's fixed now in CVS(initscripts-6.77-1 or newer).
