There's an issue with 1.13.x and 1.14.x version wrt. whitespace handling in netmask entry in /etc/network/interfaces. If there is more than single whitespace between netmask and address the count_netmask_bits will return bogs value (uint32_t)-1. This will result in ip complaining about netmask and spitting out the following line: Error: an inet prefix is expected rather than "10.10.17.99/4294967295"
Looking at the code the issue should still be valid in 1.15.x. The patch was submitted to debian bug report here: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=503230 Indeed, the patch seems to fix the issue. It might be reasonable to merge it. maciek _______________________________________________ busybox mailing list [email protected] http://lists.busybox.net/mailman/listinfo/busybox
