Have problems with my network(especially with ifconfig)
I compiled my kernel with Network support,TCP/IP networking,network device
support
and 3Com cards -> 3c509/3c579 support
And with netconfig i configured all the addressess.
But when starting linux it tells me by executing the /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1 script
with the ifconfig command
/sbin/ifconfig eth0 ${IPADDR} broadcast ${BROADCAST} netmask ${NETMASK}
SIOCSIFADDR:no such device
SIOCSIFBRADDR:no such device
SIOCSIFNETMASk: no such device
and the route command returns :
SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable
SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable
I looked with strace but the ioctl-function tells me this errors!
So i decided to get the sources from the NetKit Tool.
But i had no chance to solve my problem.
Does anybody know further help or a good diagnostic tool ?
Waiting for help
George
