ETH_DEVICE_SKIP does not recognize device name with dash (-) in it

We have device names with a dash in them:

Code: Select all

[root@youreal-web07 ~]# ifconfig
eth-internet: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST>  mtu 1500
        -- SNIP --

eth-local: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST>  mtu 1500
        -- SNIP --

lo: flags=73<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING>  mtu 65536
        -- SNIP --
eth-local is a management interface and I want it to be skipped by csf, so I set ETH_DEVICE_SKIP to eth-local, however during start csf reports that this is not valid:

Code: Select all

*WARNING* ETH_DEVICE_SKIP device [eth-local] not listed in ip/ifconfig

We'll have a fix for this in the next release.
