Re: No interfaces under /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/

OK, realised out that it's feature. Entries in /proc/sys/net/*/conf/ are not created if interface doesn't have at least one ipv4/ipv6 address. I can think of workarounds for most of problems (although it breaks a hell lot of software here), but how I suppose to configure ipv6 settings for interfaces which have to obtain global ipv6 address via autoconf so that it will work even if cable is not plugged in? I did via /etc/sysctl.conf, but now ... machine boots with no link = no link-local address = no /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/interfce = configuration fails. regards, -- Hasso Tepper - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe netdev in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

Just realized (via practical experience) that same question applies to interfaces configured via dhcp. regards, -- Hasso Tepper - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe netdev in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
No interfaces under /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/
After upgrade to 2.6.16.20 from 2.6.11 I discovered that no dynamic interfaces (vlans, tunnels) appear under /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/. /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/ is OK. Bug? Or feature? with my best wishes, -- Hasso Tepper - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe netdev in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
