Hi Mathias, I'm having a terrific problem. I don't know how to configure rtnet to use more devices than one. In the rtnet.conf file I have the parameters:
RT_DRIVER="rt_eepro100" RT_DRIVER_OPTIONS="cards=1,0,0,0" # IP address and netmask of this station # The TDMA_CONFIG file overrides these parameters for masters and backup # masters. Leave blank if you do not use IP addresses or if this station is # intended to retrieve its IP from the master based on its MAC address. IPADDR="10.0.0.1" NETMASK="" so, what do I have to write to configure two interfaces (two network cards)? Regards, Leo A Dilluns 05 Novembre 2007, M.
