Here is the ifconfig information on my host -

[host]#

I'm trying to bring up eth0 on the guest and as per Jeff Dike's book, I did a -
[UML]# ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.253 up
SIOCSIFFLAGS: Operation not permitted
eration not permitted
SIOCSIFFLAGS: Operation not permitted
[UML]#

1.As per the book, when I do a ifconfig like above on the guest, the
routing table, arp, etc should get set. Any idea why it's not being
set?

2. Why do I get the operation not permitted error ?

3. How do I set the UML root password ?
[UML]# passwd
passwd: error while loading shared libraries: libuser.so.1: cannot
open shared object file: No such file or directory
[UML]#

I brought up the UML using these options -
./linux mem=128M ubd0=root_fs con0=fd:0,fd:1 con=xterm
eth0=tuntap,,,192.168.0.254

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
KM
