Try asking your shell's manpage. I guess colons aren't supposed to appear in variable's names.
I escaped the colon - all the same.
But that's not the point: I expect the people at SuSE to take the posting as a kind of "bug report" and change the behaviour of the script.
That is not the way it should work. SuSE has a possibility to post bug reports. This is a security related listing and I prefer to keep it that way ;-).` And beside that you are invited to do some hacking before you start to mail this list with that kind of complaints. E`ven worse, you got a good advice from experienced people why to use a virtual IP address in this case. Your reaction did not show up here. You are invited to do that at least before you start complaining. Regards, Fred
