Summary: dhcp doesn't bind to dummy0
Product: Codex
Version: stable grimoire
Platform: Other
OS/Version: other
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: net
AssignedTo: sm-grimoire-bugs AT lists.ibiblio.org
ReportedBy: dmlb2000 AT gmail.com


For some crazy reason the upstream dhcp people descided to #define out support
for dummy interface devices in dhcpd so it can't bind to an interface named
'dummy.*'

This was found in the code in:
includes/cf/linux.h:#define SKIP_DUMMY_INTERFACES
work.linux-2.2/common/discover.c:#ifdef SKIP_DUMMY_INTERFACES

This seems kind of a lame restriction for the upstream people to do I'd like
to
see a patch to comment out the #define SKIP_DUMMY_INTERFAcES so people can
bind
to dummy interface devices if they like.
