netcfg - virtual network on a loopback interface

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Hi Everyone,

I was using a virtual network within my computer to run a web server for
development work. Following is the way it setup:

/etc/network.d/vlan
	CONNECTION='ethernet'
	DESCRIPTION='Virtual LAN'
	INTERFACE='lo:1'
	IP='static'
	ADDR='192.168.123.1'
	GATEWAY='192.168.123.1'
	NETMASK='255.255.255.0'

Then I have valn in the NETWORKS array in /etc/conf.d/netcfg and,
net-profiles in the DAEMONS array in /etc/rc.conf

Everything was working fine until the netcfg package update yesterday,
and since then it fails to find/create the loopback interface. I get the
followin error at boot and when I run netcfg manually.

	/usr/lib/network/network: line 364: /sys/class/net/lo:1/flags: No such
file or directory (x6)
	/usr/lib/network/globals: line 104: /sys/class/net/lo:1/carrier: No
such file or directory (x6)

** (x6) means I get 6 of the same message

Can anyone please give me a pointer how to solve this?

Thanks.
