Paul,

I only have 8 genned for my CTC connection.  I have another 16 defined for as SCTC 
Controller and Devices that our Cisco Router uses.  I guess Linux would try to 
allocate those also.  So, even if there is a 64 CTC limit, I only have 24 in my IOCDS.

Eric,

How many CTCs do you have GENed?  It used to be that Linux only kept
track of the first 64 devices of a given type. I used to get similar
messages due to excessive CTC addresses.  After configing off all the
unnecessary lower CTCs,  I could then get to the ones that were 'really'
useful.  Don't know if there is still a 64 device limit or not, however.

Good luck,
Paul

=======================================================================
I've been trying to get my network connected to my LINUX Lpar through a =
CTC connection.  I think I have everything defined correctly.  I did the =
IOCDS change last week, and put a couple of definitions in my MVS TCPIP =
Profile.  I hooked up an Escon cable between 2 chpids.  When I IPL Linux, =
I get the following error messages:

ctc0:  unknown interface; No such device
SIOCSIFDSTADDR: No such device
ctc0:  unknown interface; No such device

I put most of the answers to the networking questions in my PARM.LINE =
file.  I still get one question that asks:

Please enter the parameters you need to pass to the channel device layer:  =
and then has an example.  I reply:

"ctc0,0D00,0D01"

What is going wrong?  I've tried several different combinations, and =
always get the 3 messages above.  I can send the things I've changed if =
that is necessary.  I'll be out in the computer room and away from my PC =
trying this again.  I will check for replies before I go home.  I have to =
be soewhere, so I can't stay very late.  I'll be here till 4:45 Central =
time.  Otherwise, I'll reply in the morning.  Thanks in advance. =20
