I really wanted the bond, but decided to blow some ips and just use extra bridges to try to balance. It was not fun at all finding this bug...lol I think the reason they do not want to get into it is alomost everyone uses bond/bridges outside of the single server and it is not an issue...and to rewrite and debug all that for a few of us that are crazy to do such single box bridge bond, well, we in't gonna see that according to the bugzilla responses I saw...still, one can hope _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
