3.6. Networking kernel component Some e1000e NICs may not get an IPv4 address assigned after the system is rebooted. To work around this issue, add the following line to the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth <X> file: NetworkManager component, BZ# 758076 If a Certificate Authority (CA) certificate is not selected when configuring an 802.1x or WPA-Enterprise connection, a dialog appears indicating that a missing CA certificate is a security risk. This dialog presents two options: ignore the missing CA certificate and proceed with the insecure connection, or choose a CA certificate. If the user elects to choose a CA certificate, this dialog disappears and the user may select the CA certificate in the original configuration dialog. samba component Current Samba versions shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.3 are not able to fully control the user and group database when using the ldapsam_compat back end. This back end was never designed to run a production LDAP and Samba environment for a long period of time. The ldapsam_compat back end was created as a tool to ease migration from historical Samba releases (version 2.2.x) to Samba version 3 and greater using the new ldapsam back end and the new LDAP schema. The ldapsam_compat back end lack various important LDAP attributes and object classes in order to fully provide full user and group management. In particular, it cannot allocate user and group IDs. In the Red Hat Enterprise Linux Reference Guide , it is pointed out that this back end is likely to be deprecated in future releases. Refer to Samba's documentation for instructions on how to migrate existing setups to the new LDAP schema. When you are not able to upgrade to the new LDAP schema (though upgrading is strongly recommended and is the preferred solution), you may work around this issue by keeping a dedicated machine running an older version of Samba (v2.2.x) for the purpose of user account management. Alternatively, you can create user accounts with standard LDIF files. The important part is the assignment of user and group IDs. In that case, the old Samba 2.2 algorithmic mapping from Windows RIDs to Unix IDs is the following: user RID = UID * 2 + 1000 , while for groups it is: group RID = GID * 2 + 1001 . With these workarounds, users can continue using the ldapsam_compat back end with their existing LDAP setup even when all the above restrictions apply. kernel component, BZ# 816888 Running the QFQ queuing discipline in a virtual guest eventually results in kernel panic. kernel component Because RHEL6.3 defaults to using Strict Reverse Path filtering, packets are dropped by default when the route for outbound traffic differs from the route of incoming traffic. This is in line with current recommended practice in RFC3704. For more information about this issue please refer to /usr/share/doc/kernel-doc- <version> /Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.txt and https://access.redhat.com/site/solutions/53031 . perftest component The rdma_bw and rdma_lat utilities (provided by the perftest package) are now deprecated and will be removed from the perftest package in a future update. Users should use the following utilities instead: ib_write_bw , ib_write_lat , ib_read_bw , and ib_read_lat .
