No, it is not bug in both. gdomap dont use loopback. This is correct way gdomap works. But on Linux, there is 'dummy' interface which is something like loopback but is not loopback. It just placeholder for IP address. Enabling 'dummy' interface in kernel adds 0 bytes to size :-) But it works for GNUstep as real interface. This is why I could use GNUstep on Linux (but before I added dummy, I could not use GNUstep). I had not connected these two events :-( -- Igor Roboul, Unix System Administrator & Programmer @ sanatorium "Raduga", Sochi, Russia http://www.brainbench.com/transcript.jsp?pid=304744 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
