Hi all! I am having a problem with setting my network up. I basically want to run the following commands at bootup: ifconfig eth0:0 1.1.1.1 netmask 255.0.0.0 broadcast 1.255.255.255 route add -net 1.0.0.0 dev eth0:0
Here is /etc/rc.boot/IansStuff #!/bin/sh echo "IAN'S STUFF STARTED..." ifconfig eth0:0 1.1.1.1 netmask 255.0.0.0 broadcast 1.255.255.255 route add -net 1.0.0.0 dev eth0:0 echo "IAN'S STUFF COMPLETE" And here is what happens at startup: Configuring serial ports....done. /dev/ttyS0 at 0x03f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A IAN'S STUFF STARTED... SIOCSIFADDR: Operation not supported by device eth0:0: unknown interface. SIOCSIFNETMASK: Operation not supported by device SIOCSIFBRDADDR: Operation not supported by device eth0:0: unknown interface. SIOCADDRT: Operation not supported by device IAN'S STUFF COMPLETE INIT: Entering runlevel: 2 Starting system log daemon: syslogd klogd. Starting PCMCIA services: modules cardmgr. Starting kerneld, version 2.1.85 (pid 132) Setting up IP spoofing protection...done. Starting base networking daemons: portmap inetd. Starting domain name service: namedloading device 'eth0'... . As you can see eth0 is not created until after my script runs, so it fails :-( Where should I put my script?
