mpd pptp in multi-homed environment

2003-02-08 Thread Clive Lin
Hi, Can I setup a pptp configuration which binds on 2 IPs? I'm setting up a box which has 2 up streams, and of course, 2 NICs with 2 public IPs. I consulted mpd stock documents and googled around, but still can not find a solution for setting up a multiple 'lines' pptp server AND binds on

Programmatically obtaining interface hardware addrs

2003-02-08 Thread Joe Marcus Clarke
What's the best (or easiest) way to programmatically obtain interfaces' hardware addresses (that is, without forking ifconfig ;-))? I'm looking at how ifconfig does it, and wondering if there's an easier way. It seems Linux has a nice SIOCGIFHWADDR ioctl to do this. Thanks. Joe -- PGP Key : h

Likely part of the performance issue was due to the Chipset of the motherboard. Your typical 32bit 33MHz PCI bus is going to be marginal for routing GigE traffic, just due to bus bandwidth limitations, but it'll handle multiple 100BaseTX cards just fine. While a higher-end setup like a Serverworks
