The only reference to lo0 I have is in /etc/defaults/rc.conf: ifconfig_lo0="inet 127.0.0.1" # default loopback device configuration. #ifconfig_lo0_alias0="inet 127.0.0.254 netmask 0xffffffff" # Sample alias entry. #ifconfig_ed0_ipx="ipx 0x00010010" # Sample IPX address family entry. #ifconfig_fxp0_name="net0" # Change interface name from fxp0 to net0. #ipv4_addrs_fxp0="192.168.0.1/24 192.168.1.1-5/28" # example IPv4 address entry. Neither server has anything other than this. The RELENG_6 server acts as everyone else has responded (including yourself). But the 7-RC3 server, and 7-B4 server, both provide only 127.0.0.1 Dunno what to think. In my desperation to get this application running as it did on the RELENG_6 server; I added the following to /et/rc.conf ifconfig_lo0="inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0" Killed the BIND, and then ran /etc/netstart and I discovered I have all the 127's I will ever need. I then restarted the BIND and the application I'm trying to get working. Anyhow. I didn't intend to spam the list with the application issues. I'm simply trying to discover why the loopback block isn't functioning the same on my recent 7 installs as it has always functioned in the past. I'll be happy to provide any further details/data anyone might require. Thanks for taking the time to respond. --Chris H > > Kris > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" > -- panic: kernel trap (ignored)
