Hi Erich; it seems to be complied with export USE-IPROUTE2, but the on the other hand _startklips (and probably other files) still requires ifconfig (this is one of the files we patched in the 3.x series). I'm not using openswan, nor do I understand the changes for a 2.6 kernel, the difference between klips, netkey etc., but it seems something is wrong - we do compile with iproute2 support, but also package files that require ifconfig. Unless you can provide a fixed version, from wherever you are :), I suggest we remove openswan from Bering-uClibc 4.0. I'd create a TRAC ticket as reminder. kp ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The ultimate all-in-one performance toolkit: Intel(R) Parallel Studio XE: Pinpoint memory and threading errors before they happen.
