Follow up info -
If you look at the network interface line - I have dhcp specified (this
is a requirement in my environment). This precludes the use of netmask=,
and will cause an error when the client boots (verified empirically).
It is not supposed to ask for the netmask. The patch I noted is supposed
to fix this and it didn't.
(Note: if I set it up with static routing entries it will work fine. I
need the dhcp stuff to work as the man page states.)
TIA
