The selection of src and dst HITs by the hip daemon is still
unpredictable after the patch. We performed tests by first initiating
base exchange from crash to oops and trying to ping from crash to oops
using every combination of src and dst HITS, then we repeated this in
the opposite direction from oops to crash.
I have attached a tar file of the results of our testing (containing the
hipd output for both oops and crash). Im not sure if this mailing list
allows attachments, so if this mail is rejected I will try to paste all
the files in as text.

Could it be to do with the order of the entries in /etc/hip/hosts?The reason for this problem was that the userspace application ended up in selecting a different HIT than hipd. I fixed this problem properly in hipl--main--2.6--patch-110. Have a go with that version and please report if it was successful?
