See linux/net/ipv6/addrconf.c and follow the call chain. This seems to be introduced by fact that the parameters in 2.4 are copied while in 2.2 kernels this was not the case. My simple patch fixes this one problem. after applying I can now successfuly create ipv6 tunnels with ifconfig. Please apply this patch. thanks, Jorg -- Jorg de Jong Work : mailto:jorg.de.jong@ict.nl Play : mailto:j.e.s.de.jong@freeler.nl --------------AD0AC28E06EC9A04BDA72D08 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; name="diffie" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline; filename="diffie" --- linux-2.4.0-test8/net/ipv6/sit.c Mon Aug 28 21:03:11 2000 +++ linux/net/ipv6/sit.c Tue Aug 15 22:28:27 2000 @@ -188,7 +188,7 @@ } if (i==100) goto failed; - memcpy(parms->name, dev->name, IFNAMSIZ); + memcpy(nt->parms.name, dev->name, IFNAMSIZ); } if (register_netdevice(dev) < 0) goto failed; --------------AD0AC28E06EC9A04BDA72D08-- --------------5C2073FC3AFA402F10AE8994-- - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
