Sender: owner-freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I don't seem to be able to get 3.2 to do a SL/IP install (this is for a laptop which seems to be having PAO problems...) Turning on DEBUG in the install options, I can watch it nicely execute: ifconfig sl0 inet 10.0.0.98 10.0.0.99 netmask 255.255.255.0 but - not matter what - that always seems to fail with: ifconfig: ioctl(SIOCAIFADDR): File exists does anyone have a clue why the ioctl for the sl0 ifconfig would fail? (Perhaps the sl psuedo-device is missing from the kernel?) [I'm guessin the 'File exists' is left-over stuff in errno, as the ioctl(SIOCAIFADDR) message seems to be the result of perror().] - Thanks - - Dave Rivers - To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
