https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=206383 Summary: /etc/sysconfig/network/providers/* DNS variables useless: don't override ipppd ms-dns option Product: SUSE Linux 10.1 Version: Final Platform: All OS/Version: SuSE Linux 10.1 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: ISDN AssignedTo: zoz@novell.com ReportedBy: kgw@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de This bug is present probably for a long time: found in SuSE 9.1, SLES-9, SLES-10, SUSE 10.1 /etc/sysconfig/network/scripts/ifup-ippp executes the following line: test "$MODIFYDNS" = "yes" && CMDLINE_OPT="$CMDLINE_OPT ms-get-dns" This means that, upon ipppd dialin, DNS info supplied by peer via ms-dns is used _unconditionally_, even if the corresponding providers file /etc/sysconfig/network/providers/provider* specifies different nameservers in its DNS* variables. This is bad, as these DNS* specs usually are entered for the purpose of being actually used. Going to attach a patch which causes the ms-get-dns option to be utilized only if no nameservers via DNS* variables are set. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
