[LON-CAPA-admin] Certificates, MAC Addr?

[lucasm at ohiou.edu]

Hi,

In my flailing around to solve a kerberos problem (I think it has been 
isolated to a misbehaving DNS server), I swapped disks into different 
chasses. I had to acknowledge a new container, but all else seemed fine.

I have now realized that the system is complaining (though supposedly not 
such that it is not functioning) that the MAC address of the interface is 
different.

oucapa2 has a new MAC address, Fedora Core 3, and hasn't said boo about 
this.

oucapa8 has a new MAC address, Fedora Core 4, and complains on network 
restart that the MAC address has changed, though it will ignore that. The 
stop portion of the restart 'fails'. oucapa8 talks okay to capa2, so the 
network is nominally up.

Is there anything LON-CAPA related that could be having problems? oucapa8 
is not communicating with msul1 very well. (either issues with MAC address 
and certificates or some form of check on the network with msul1 that 
would complain about a machine with a bad MAC address.)

Thanks,
Mark
