Try "ifconfig br0 up" -----Original Message----- From: bridge-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:bridge-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Bryan Waters Sent: Wednesday, February 23, 2005 2:45 PM To: bridge@xxxxxxxx Subject: [Bridge] Bridge not working... I've got a 2.6.8 kernel with bridging enabled as a module, two nics (LNE100TX and RTL8139) and i've run the following commands with no errors modprobe -v bridge brctl addbr br0 brctl addif br0 eth0 brctl addif br0 eth1 both interfaces have 0.0.0.0 as their addresses and brctl showmacs br0 shows the macs for both internal cards. However, bridging doesn't seem to be working at all. What am I missing or what else can I try to debug what might be wrong? thanks _______________________________________________ Bridge mailing list Bridge@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.osdl.org/mailman/listinfo/bridge
