NOT acceptable "/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup" script !!!

[P.Italiaander]

hello all , 

I have just installed the new Mandrake 9.1 as workstation , and i had to 
adjust the ifup script ,since i use internal, an dhcp-server.So it 
automaticaly adapt the /etc/hosts file.
But to my  suprise , i saw that the ifup script , still is written for 
ipchains !!!! THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE 
So i will correct it the iptables-script , when it's done 
i'll send a copy , for other Mandrake or RedHat users , maybe come handy

..heh, check out
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=89171

...but there _is_ hope for RH:
http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2003-172.html is appearantly serious 
enough to get Red Hat to drop their no-upgrade-to-match-newest-vanilla 
policy, _all_ supported RH versions are asked to go to 2.4.20-13.

I have made the update for the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup script , 
this update is only usefull if you make use of a dhcp-client or server. ( 
local or ISP )  and of course iptables :)

I hope this is usefull for somebody,

Sorry friend , your information is usefill , but it's not about what I 've 
said before. In the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup file are some lines 
that match with ipchains, instead of iptables, what it should be. Iptables is 
now standard.
We don't use ipchains or i'm in the wrong mailing-list.

the only thing that is done, is the existing ipchains-rules convert to 
iptables-rules, inclusif compatibilty-check.

..I know, ipup _is_ buggy, my hint was more on Red Hats somewhat 
sloppy QA attitude.  I mean, if I should _not_ use RH9 to route 
traffic, I would like to know _that_ from the docs.

..does Mandrake or Debian turn their rear end onto _whoever_ like RH-9
does in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=89171 ???

I've checked , but Mandrake 9.1 is not effected with that bug.
Thanks for mention it. 
On Debian i don't know  ,don't have it , i use OpenBSD en Linux SuSe , Redhat 
,Mandrake.

Does anyone have tested yet,  my patched /sbin/ifup file, for iptables-script 
??

..the wifi part of it works fine, but it _introduces_ bug # 89171,
I tested with a thinkpad 760 ED I use as AP, it runs RH-7.3.

..it looks like Red Hat cannot use mac addresses to ID nics.
