Re: all loopback devices are in use

[Douglas Phillipson <dougp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Is this just a kernel option?  One perhaps I didn't compile in?  If I 
boot of the stock RH 9 kernel and build a new kernel I don't have this 
problem.  It's only when I boot off my new kernel and rebuild it that 
the problem occurs.

Thanks for the quick response!
