Bug #205 sez':

in ifup-ipx script underlines in next line should be
changes to dots

for frametype in 802_2 802_3 ETHERII SNAP ; do

I have verified this to be a bug in the initscripts. If autoprimary
and and autoframetype is enabled in /etc/sysconfig/network then the
interface will come up properly. If they are set to no then whatever
frametypes that are defined in the
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethx will not become activated.

Bug report:

1998-07-07T12:15:12+00:00

I am running dip-3.3.7o-10 and initscripts-3.32-1 on Red Hat 5.0 Intel and
was unable to terminate an established SLIP connection in the standard
fashion.  After some hacking around I discovered that the problem
was that when dip establishes a connection, it changes it's argument
list to '-dip (IP_ADDRESS)' where IP_ADDRESS is the local IP address.
This of course breaks the network-scripts handling of the connection.
I've modified /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifdown-sl to take this
into account and included the modified file below.  I don't think it
will work for people with dynamically allocated IP addresses though...
