Topic

Updated initscripts packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The initscripts packages contain basic system scripts to boot the system, change
runlevels, activate and deactivate most network interfaces, and shut down the
system cleanly.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • Previously, if IP address 127.x.x.x was present in the ethX interface after

running the "ifdown ethX" command, this IP address was not removed from ethX.
This update makes sure "ifdown" removes such an address, thus fixing this bug.
(BZ#1279935)

Users of initscripts are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix
this bug.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant
to your system have been applied.
