Apologies if this is not the right list.
I've recently started using IPX in a 2.0.14 kernel. I've read right through the HOWTO, and can't find any mention of this.
The problem is I keep getting the kernel message:
: IPX: Network number collision 2 : eth0 802.3 and eth0 EtherII
IPX is compiled as a module, with CONFIG_IPX_INTERN not set at all. My /proc looks like this:
pc1:/var/log> cat /proc/net/ipx_interface Network Node_Address Primary Device Frame_Type 00000002 00608CE8B797 Yes eth0 802.3 00000007 00608CE8B797 No eth0 802.2 00000000 00608CE8B797 No eth0 EtherII pc1:/var/log> cat /proc/net/ipx_route Network Router_Net Router_Node 00000007 Directly Connected 00000002 Directly Connected I am not running as a file server (or client), in fact I am just using IPX to print to a Netware servers Printer (This works fine). So I have no connections up at all, and I *still* get these messages. As far as I know the network here uses 802.3. Its not fatal, but my /var/log/messages is getting pretty big... Any suggestions? Or is there a Linux-IPX mailing list I should address this to? While I'm at it, I'm trying to set the box up as a Netware file server. I've tried the "mars_nwe" package with little success, and I was going to have a crack at the lwared one. However, this requires a custom patch against an early 1.3.xx kernel to be applied, which I don't know much about. Has anyone got this working with 2.0.xx ?? (Or can point me to more docs for mars_nwe *in english*?) TIA. Cheers... Mike
