Hi guys,

This is silly, but at this one I find myself totaly helpless.
I have two cards (on a fedora core 8 station), a gigabit, on board and a 10/100. The Gigabit card is mapped to eth2 and the 10/100 is mapped to eth4. One of the libraries uses flexlm for licensing purposes. The license file is keyed on th 10/100 interface's MAC address. Unfortunately, the flexlm likes to use eth0 to verify the mac address. To solve the problem I tried to change the eth4 interface to eth0 without success.
Can anyone help me with that?



As you do have the license and just get pestered by the ridiculous flexlm software, why not use srace to find out what system call (probably IOCTL) the flexlm program make, write a small library to provide a fake answer to that call and load it using LD_PRELOAD? :-)

Cheers,
Gilad
