Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): redhat-config-network-1.2.3-3 Please try: ftp://people.redhat.com/harald/redhat-config-network/1.2.9-RH9/ and downgrade rhpl, if necessary with --force :) *** Bug 97029 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** OK, I up- and downgraded to redhat-config-network-1.2.9-1 redhat-config-network-tui-1.2.9-1 rhpl-0.93.2-1 Now redhat-config-network fails to startup. Traceback: Component: redhat-config-network Version: 1.2.9 Summary: TB NCDevADSL.py:33:load:NameError: global name 'ConfDevice' is not defined Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/redhat-config-network-gui", line 156, in main window = mainDialog() File "/var/tmp/redhat-config-network-1.2.9-root/usr/share/redhat-config-network/netconfpkg/gui/maindialog.py", line 169, in __init__ File "/var/tmp/redhat-config-network-1.2.9-root/usr/share/redhat-config-network/netconfpkg/gui/maindialog.py", line 238, in load File "/var/tmp/redhat-config-network-1.2.9-root/usr/share/redhat-config-network/netconfpkg/gui/maindialog.py", line 245, in loadDevices File "/var/tmp/redhat-config-network-1.2.9-root/usr/share/redhat-config-network/netconfpkg/NCDeviceList.py", line 263, in getDeviceList File "/var/tmp/redhat-config-network-1.2.9-root/usr/share/redhat-config-network/netconfpkg/NCDeviceList.py", line 117, in load File "/var/tmp/redhat-config-network-1.2.9-root/usr/share/redhat-config-network/netconfpkg/plugins/NCDevADSL.py", line 33, in load NameError: global name 'ConfDevice' is not defined Local variables in innermost frame: self: Device.Type=xDSL name: DePoort ok, second try, same ftp location, version 1.2.9-2 upgraded to redhatc-config-network-1.2.9-2 and rhpl-0.105.1-2. This is much bettter: * It does not crash on start * It remembers the password for the xDSL connection Some things are still broken: * It still discards my PPTP passwords in /etc/ppp/chap-secrets. Surprisingly enough it leaves the comments by pptp-php-gtk.php intact. * If you change the login name of the xDSL connection, redhat-config-network, does create a new entry with the name in /etc/ppp/chap-secrets, but does not remove the old entry. Something that may or not be intended behaviour: redhat-config-network actually creates two lines in chap-secrets: "username" <tab> "nickname" <tab> "password" "username" <tab> * <tab> "password" The second line will generate a conflict if you have another PPP connection with the same username. Also, at least in my case the server field should not contain the device nickname but the AC-Name. (I've worked around this by choosing the nickname of the device to equal the AC-Name, but this results in problems when trying to enable the device at boot time, see bug #97030). |
