Hello! Since recently, I cannot bring up the loopback device at the first attempt. Running net.lo fails like this:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ sudo /etc/init.d/net.lo start * Starting lo * Bringing up lo * 127.0.0.1/8 SIOCSIFADDR: File exists SIOCSIFFLAGS: Cannot assign requested address SIOCSIFNETMASK: Cannot assign requested address SIOCSIFBRDADDR: Cannot assign requested address SIOCSIFFLAGS: Cannot assign requested address [ !! ] When I run the command right again, it wokrs just fine: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ sudo /etc/init.d/net.lo start * Starting lo * Bringing up lo * 127.0.0.1/8 [ ok ] * Adding routes * 127.0.0.0/8 ... [ ok ] [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ uname -a Linux blatt 2.6.12-ck6.020.sysvipc #1 Fri Aug 26 18:19:03 CEST 2005 i686 Intel(R) Celeron(R) M processor 1.50GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ epm -qf /etc/init.d/net.lo baselayout-1.12.0_pre7 Any ideas, why this might be like this?
