Hello! It's been a surprise to me, sorry for disturbing. But, again, do I want too much, when I try to set addresses of (ok) two different address families at the same time? May I turn this "bug" report into a feature request, please? Or what I want is religiously wrong? )) That's what I have been doing successfully on my 4.5-RELEASE, and may be in the worst case, it's an item for release notes? Thanks, Mike Boev. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Doug Barton" <dougb@FreeBSD.org> To: <mike@tric.tomsk.gov.ru>; <dougb@FreeBSD.org>; <freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org> Sent: Monday, July 08, 2002 2:37 PM Subject: Re: bin/40322: ifconfig fails to set both mac and ip address with a single command > Synopsis: ifconfig fails to set both mac and ip address with a single command > > State-Changed-From-To: open->closed > State-Changed-By: dougb > State-Changed-When: Mon Jul 8 00:35:28 PDT 2002 > State-Changed-Why: > > The man page describes why this is true: > > SYNOPSIS > ifconfig [-L] [-m] interface [create] [address_family] > ... > > Both ether and inet are considered "address families" for this purpose. > > If this is confusing to you, feel free to follow up on freebsd-questions. > > http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=40322 > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
