<DIV>This morning, I was trying out a 2 dongle install from <A
href="https://github.com/XSCE/xsce.git">https://github.com/XSCE/xsce.git</A>.
The default in vars/default_vars.yml is eth0 as WAN and eth1 as LAN. Well,
I forgot to edit that for my interfaces (eth1 as WAN and eth2 as LAN). So
after ./runansible finished, I edited vars/default_vars.yml accordingly and
reran ./runansible.<BR><BR>After a reboot, I couldn't ssh back in. Walked
over to the XO 1.75 and ifconfig indicated that eth1 and eth2 were both on
172.18.96.1. On DXS, whenever I've forgotten to edit default_vars.yml for
my interfaces, I can edit that file, rerun ./runansible, and everything gets
sorted out.<BR><BR>What I discovered is that now runansible apparently generates
an ifcfg file for the LAN interface in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts.
After attempt #1 with the default interfaces (eth0 for WAN and eth1 for LAN) and
attempt #2 with my edits (eth1 for WAN and eth2 for LAN), now I had ifcfg-eth1
and ifcfg-eth2 in
there:<BR><BR>DEVICE=eth1<BR>BOOTPROTO=static<BR>DHCPCLASS=<BR>HWADDR=00:1C:49:01:04:27<BR>IPADDR=172.18.96.1<BR>NETMASK=255.255.224.0<BR>ONBOOT=yes<BR><BR>DEVICE=eth2<BR>BOOTPROTO=static<BR>DHCPCLASS=<BR>HWADDR=00:E0:4C:53:44:58<BR>IPADDR=172.18.96.1<BR>NETMASK=255.255.224.0<BR>ONBOOT=yes<BR><BR>Before
I figured out what was going on, I rebooted a couple of times and was perplexed
that both eth1 and eth2 kept coming up on 172.18.96.1.<BR><BR>So, I deleted
ifcfg-eth1, reran ./runansible, rebooted, and now networking is fine. WAN
is eth1 on 192.168.1.11 and LAN is eth2 on 172.18.96.1, like it's supposed to
be.<BR><BR></DIV>What we should probably do is discard any ifcfg-eth# files
first thing so there aren't any old ones lingering about to muck up
networking.<BR>
