Bug 208156 – net-misc/ucarp init script

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description George .H 2008-01-30 09:47:36 UTC]

Add a new ebuild for UCARP v 1.4 but this one includes a very recent patch. The stock 1.4 version won't work unless the network interface card is set into promiscuous mode (works when you debug with tcpdump, doesn't when you don't) it's documented  here "http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/ucarp/2008/1/30/648179"

Also the ebuilds for ucarp are old in portage and this is the newest version.

Reproducible: Always

ucarp-1.4-r1.ebuild

The new ucarp v1.4  ebuild which includes the patch.
It's pretty simple and I just modified one of the older ebuilds.

ucarp.initd

a user sent me his ucarp init.d script. I POSIX'ified it but it still might need some work. I'm not using ucarp myself but it would be nice to ship a proper init.d script.

A bit of polishing wouldn't hurt, like in the attached patch (ucarp-1.5.patch).

ucarp config-file for /etc/conf.d

[Comment 13 Marcel Pennewiß 2010-11-14 20:51:41 UTC]

Here is my
 * conf-file for to configure all possible options (based on [1])
 * a simple init-file
 * updated up/down-scripts which use iproute2 to add/delete failover ip address

I'm also updated the ebuild based on Cristi's version adding iproute2 dependency.

Maybe this would help someone outside to use ucarp on gentoo ;)

  Revision bump for new init.d/conf.d-scripts written from scratch by Christian
  Affolter for the FOSS-Cloud project, fixes bug #208156.

The rewrite was necessary to adhere to recent best practices (declarative init.d script style).
