If you mean a packet destined for the source address of the POINTOPOINT link, then yes, this is intentional. If you want to be able to ping the local end you'll need a route on lo. > Hi > > I don't know if this is intentional or a bug, but if ifconfig is used to > configure a point to point d

pseudo interface and ioctls

2001-01-31 Thread Geoffrey Crompton (RMIT Guest)
I'm trying to write a pseudo interface, but I'm confused about my responsibilities for the _ioctl() command. It seems that for the assigning of an address, I simply need to return 0 to indicate that address family is ok, as the higher level functions handle the actuall assignment of addresses

Hi, I sent these files in private. But I remembered that I have another unusual config in this machine: is is multiprocessed, and has 10 SCSI disks and lots of SYSV shared memory. I could also test a kernel compiled by you, using my config. Just send it to me in private and I'll try.

Hi Luigi, I'm seeing the same problem here, and I do not use bridging. I have DUMMYNET and IPFIREWALL configured. I can send the kernel and firewall config files if you need. BTW: this did not happen with 4.2-RELEASE. For more info, see the message I've posted to freebsd-stable list. Lui

Routes and tunnels

2001-01-31 Thread parminder . mudhar
Hi I don't know if this is intentional or a bug, but if ifconfig is used to configure a point to point device, such as 'tun' or the newer 'gif' devices, then the kernel insists on installing a route where the destination is the end point of the tunnel, the gateway is the source of the tunnel and
