Hi ! I have the following problem: My FreeBSD box runs FreeBSD-current and it provides IP/IPX routing between the four newtwork interfaces ( 3 NE2000 + 1 Tulip). Sometime ago since the CVSup'ing of -current my tulip card couldn't assign IPX address to interface by the ifconfig. I seen at /pci/if_de.c and can't find implementation of IPX portion of code for ioctl requests ( SIOCSIFADDR). After patching I can work with IPX on tulip but, the next misteriuos thing is happen : IPX packets to one of my networks, connected to tulip card can't successfully forwards from the remote network : NET 0 NET 1 Broken IPX net. Good IPX net. *--------------- Tulip ( ) NE2000 ------------* ( FreeBSD box ) Good IPX net +--------( )NE2000--1'st if(*)2'nd if--+ | NetWare 3.12 | | NET 2 | | | | NetWare 4.1 | NET 3 | 1'st if ( FreeBSD box) 2'nd if NET 4 | +-------------NetWare 4.1 ( unreachable from tulip). But Netware 4.1 from unreachable network can see from a NET 1-3 :-( Thanks , Vasily . ***************[ FreeBSD it is coolest UNIX for PCs ! ]*************** * System admin/programmer, ftp/web/post master. * IM & PE of VorSTU * * Home Page: http://www.ied-vorstu.ac.ru/~bazilio * **********************************************************************
