Hello,
Excuse me for my poor english but I'm french.
I have a Usb to Usb cable (from Sitecom) which has a PL2302 chip.
I've a Slackware 8.0 with a kernel 2.4.17.
When I make modprobe usb-uhci and modprobe usbnet, everything seems Ok since in 
/var/log/messages , I can see usb0: register usbnet 001/002, Prolific PL-2301/PL-2302.
If I make ifconfig usb0 , I get :
usb0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 58:EE:8C:51:3C:4B  
          inet addr:192.168.0.1  Bcast:192.168.0.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          BROADCAST MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:100 
          RX bytes:0 (0.0 b)  TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)


But when I make ifconfig usb0 192.168.0.2 pointopoint 192.168.0.1 up (the adresses are 
in /etc/host in the form 192.168.0.1     fixe and 192.168.0.2    portable), I get :
SIOCSIFFLAGS: Broken Pipe
SIOCSIFFLAGS: Broken Pipe
and in /var/log/messages, I can see :
usb0: open reset fail (-32) usbnet 001/002, Prolific PL2301/PL-2302
I understand nothing !
I saw on a message someone saying to read USB-to-USB Networking Cable support in Linux 
usb configuration page but I don't know where to find it
I've made a lot of searches on the web but I've found nothing (and I've looked to 
www.linux-usb.org).
Please, could someone help me. I really don't know what to do.
Thank you wery much.
