A cfengine (1.6.0a3) running on a Solaris 2.7 machine... I have a line
in the configuration like:
interfaces:
"hme0" netmask=255.255.255.0 broadcast=ones
The cfengine run yields the following result:
Found netmask: 255.255.255.192
cfengine:email21: The netmask is incorrectly configured, resetting...
Found broadcast address: 208.169.17.191
cfengine:email21: Broadcast address was 208.169.17.191 (should be
bit-type one) Resetting interface...
cfengine:email21: Permission to reconfigure netmask denied.
cfengine:email21: ioctl: Bad address
Trying to set broad to 208.169.17.255 = 208.169.17.255
cfengine:email21: Permission to reconfigure broadcast denied.
cfengine:email21: ioctl: Bad address
Is there a problem with cfengine? Why can't it reset the netmask? It's
running as root.
Thanks in advance.
