You may want to try the latest unofficial rcn and rhpl here.  Upgrade everything
here except the .src.rpm packages and report your findings.



Comment 2 Marcelo Roberto Jimenez 2003-06-17 02:43:28 UTC
Warren,

The rpms did not install:

[root@phoenix redhat-config-network]# rpm -Uvh
redhat-config-network-1.2.9-2.noarch.rpm
redhat-config-network-tui-1.2.9-2.noarch.rpm rhpl-0.93.2-1.i386.rpm
warning: redhat-config-network-1.2.9-2.noarch.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key
ID c5575542
error: Failed dependencies:
        rhpl >= 0:0.105 is needed by redhat-config-network-tui-1.2.9-2


Comment 3 Marcelo Roberto Jimenez 2003-06-17 03:16:00 UTC
I have grabbed the source rpms and removed the ">= 0:0.105" part of the
requirement of tui and rebuilt the binaries from the source. The program loaded
normally and the error did not show.


Comment 4 Harald Hoyer 2003-06-17 09:07:59 UTC
better get the latest updates from this page (actually 1.2.11):
http://people.redhat.com/harald/redhat-config-network/

Comment 5 Marcelo Roberto Jimenez 2003-06-21 14:19:12 UTC
Harald,
have downloaded and installed without problems the following rpms from
http://people.redhat.com/harald/redhat-config-network/ :
- redhat-config-network-1.2.12-4.noarch.rpm 
- redhat-config-network-tui-1.2.12-4.noarch.rpm 
- rhpl-0.93.3-1.i386.rpm

Everything is working fine. Thank you for your help.
