Hi list,
I am trying to setup a central netdump-server and configure rhel3.0/2.1 clients scattered in different subnets. The whitepaper at http://www.redhat.com/support/wpapers/redhat/netdump/ states:
"The hardware address (macaddr) of the netdump server or first-hop router is stored when the IP address is looked up at the time the module is inserted. This helps prevent spoof attacks, and simplifies the network crash dump client code."
This does not happen as it does to do arping on the netdump-server, and if it is a subnet apart like ours, arp requests won't get across.
Bugzilla has an open bug in this regard. (90803) (see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=90803 )
I want to clear /etc/init.d/netdump of the arping with normal ping per Allen's feedback, but before that, I wanted to hear from anybody with netdump-server and clients apart subnets/routers.
thanks in advance,
