From: Piotr KUCHARSKI <nos...@42.pl> To: bug-follo...@freebsd.org, nos...@42.pl Cc: Subject: Re: misc/154943: ifconfig gifX create on existing gifX clears IP Date: Mon, 21 Feb 2011 21:00:26 +0100 Uhm. I guess it's kind of a false alarm, not regression from 8.1 :) The problem is this: # getent hosts create 85.128.167.158 create.pl so ifconfig sees that gif5 interface exists and so decides I wanted to change the IP and resolves "create", gets the IP, and basically executes: # ifconfig gif3 85.128.167.158 ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCAIFADDR): Destination address required IMHO it still should not clear the old address in this case. _______________________________________________ freebsd-bugs@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-bugs-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
