Package: dhcp3-server Version: 3.0.1-2 Severity: normal Hello,
There is a problem with dhcp3-server when used on IP aliased interfaces.
If one of the aliased interface is named with two semi colon (e. g.
eth1:hello:0), the interface name is detected uncorrectly.
After a quick look into the code, this is probably caused by come code in
common/discover.c, somewhat like:
around line 379:
sep = strrchr (buffer, ':');
if (sep)
*sep = '\0';
or around line 230:
#ifdef ALIAS_NAMES_PERMUTED
if ((s = strrchr (ifp -> ifr_name, ':'))) {
*s = 0;
}
#endif
Not sure which one is used first.
Note: This happened on a stable machine, but I look the code from unstable
(3.0.4-6). But I think it's the same.
Cheers,
