Yup, I tried and tried and tried... Even compiled the latest versions of it, but it still didn't work. Until I turned on the kernel-compile option CONFIG_PACKET and CONFIG_IP_PNP. Then it worked -- although it takes now about 10 secs instead of .5 secs to configure the network... But at least its working now. Maybe the HOWTO should be a bit more specific... Or maybe I should have figured the hint about SOCKET_PACKET in the README is really about CONFIG_PACKET? Grt, Renald Buter
