[suse-autoinstall] problem with resolv.conf
Hallo,
I 'm trying to install the file /etc/resolv.conf on a linux 9.1 client
with autoinstallation.
My xml-file looks like this:
1)
<configure>
<networking>
<dns>
I have had the same problem with this and other things when using a post
install script and autoyast.
You will find some info here:
http://www.tcm.phy.cam.ac.uk/~mr349/suse/autoyast.html
which I will complete once we have rolled out Suse 9.1 to our
workstations.
I minimised the post-install script and did this:
#!/bin/sh
# This script is called by /etc/rc.d/first_boot.sh which in turn
# is called by /etc/rc.d/rc5.d/S99first_boot.sh. This is because
# putting some of this stuff into the autoyast post-install script
# such as the networking stuff, does not work as it is lost after
# the install completes(?!?!)
#Seems to be a good idea to sleep a bit to allow boot processes to
complete before
# hacking system
sleep 120
# Remove soft link from /etc/rc.d/rc3.d straight away so that we do not
# risk the system getting into a reboot loop
rm /etc/rc.d/rc5.d/S99first_boot
# and script
rm /etc/rc.d/first_boot.sh
cp /etc/resolv.conf /root/
# Sort out resolv.conf
cat > /etc/resolv.conf <
Hallo,
I 'm trying to install the file /etc/resolv.conf on a linux 9.1 client with autoinstallation.
My xml-file looks like this: 1) <configure> <networking> <dns>
true <domain>zam.kfa-juelich.de</domain> <hostname>zam724</hostname> <nameservers config:type="list"> <nameserver>134.94.80.2</nameserver> <nameserver>134.94.80.3</nameserver> <nameserver>134.94.100.7</nameserver> </nameservers> <searchlist config:type="list"> <search>zam.kfa-juelich.de</search> <search>kfa-juelich.de</search> <search>fz-juelich.de</search> </searchlist> </dns> <scripts> <post-scripts config:type="list"> <script> <filename>post.sh</filename> <interpreter>shell</interpreter> <source> ....During executing post.sh-script I listed /etc/resolv.conf. It is installed with searchline and nameserver , but without line " domain zam.kfa-juelich.de"
2) to prevent several daemons from changing resolv.conf I inserted:
<sysconfig config:type="list">
XNTPD_INITIAL_NTPDATE xntp 134.94.80.2 </sysconfig> MODIFY_RESOLV_CONF_DYNAMICALLY /etc/sysconfig/network/config no .... --> /etc/sysconfig/network/config is installed with line MODIFY_RESOLV_CONF_DYNAMICALLY="no"
a) /etc/resolv.conf is linked to a file mounted readonly by nfs in post.sh which is valid to all our clients , without 2) --> link is overwritten, resolv.conf is changed by dhcpd , pay attention to length 0 of /etc/resolv.conf.saved.by.dhcpcd
zam724:~ # ls -l /etc/reso* -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1321 Aug 5 12:42 /etc/resolv.conf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 125 Aug 5 12:20 /etc/resolv.conf.install -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Aug 5 12:42 /etc/resolv.conf.saved.by.dhcpcd
b) /etc/resolv.conf is installed as a link to a file mounted ro by nfs in post.sh and with 2) :MODIFY_RESOLV_CONF_DYNAMICALLY="no"
--> When system boots for the first time, there are the following errormessages on screen and /etc/resolv.conf becomes an empty file!!!!!
grep resolv /var/log/*
boot.msg:Cleaning up using /sbin/modify_resolvconf: boot.msg:touch: cannot touch `/etc/resolv.conf': No such file or directory boot.msg:Deleted the following stale backups: removed `/etc/resolv.conf.saved.by.yast2' boot.msg:sed: can't read /etc/resolv.conf: No such file or directory boot.msg:cat: /etc/resolv.conf: No such file or directory
