severity 502365 grave thanks Breaking network connections during upgrades makes systems unreachable - remember, not everybody has access to the virtual console via VC. It also breaks any way to update systems automatically and you have to use the console. -- Dembach Goo Informatik GmbH & Co. KG

2008-10-15 Thread juan
Package: open-vm-tools Severity: normal when upgrading open-vm-tools, it unload the network drivers (/etc/init.d/open-vm-tools stop). if you are connected to remote server with ssh, it's a major problem. could the script never unload the network driver unless it's called from init 0 or init 6. -
