The vmnet1:0 entry in the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts directory seems to break the initilization of rp3. When I load up rp3 swith gdb every time I get the following stack. (gdb) run Starting program: /usr/bin/rp3 Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. strncmp (s1=0x805510c "ppp", s2=0x0, n=3) at ../sysdeps/generic/strncmp.c:65 65 ../sysdeps/generic/strncmp.c: No such file or directory.

[iprowell@improv iprowell]$ rpm -q rp3 rp3-1.0.1-1 I think that the : might be causing a problem.
Doing the following allowed rp3 to come up normally. [root@improv network-scripts]# mv ifcfg-vmnet1:0 tmp.ifcfg-vmnet1:0 I think this rather directly implies that this interface config file is the problem.
I'm almost certain that this is fixed in rp3-1.0.4 in Raw Hide (ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/rawhide/i386/RedHat/RPMS/rp3-1.0.4-1.i386.rpm). Please give it a try and reopen this bug if you're still having trouble.
