I would update to -CURRENT, but I'm a little worried about my ATA drive not being detected with the new ATAng stuff. :) Not to mention the hastle of having to compile all my userland stuff from source. (You can't use packages with -CURRENT, right? Or am I mistaken?) This isn't a beater laptop. I actually use it for real work.

route problems in 5.1-RELEASE
Howdy list, I'm having major problems with the route command today. My machine is an IBM Thinkpad A30p laptop, running FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE. I have two interfaces. wi0 and fxp0 Normally, if I want to swap from wi0 to fxp0, all I have to do is: killall dhclient ifconfig wi0 down ifconfig fxp0 up dhclient fxp0 And I'm done. However, ocassionally this backfires, like it did today: My fxp0 interface is up: fxp0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500 inet6 fe80::2d0:59ff:feaa:70ec%fxp0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x3 inet 192.168.1.101 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255 ether 00:d0:59:aa:70:ec media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX full-duplex) status: active And my wi0 interface is down: wi0: flags=8802BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500 inet6 fe80::220:e0ff:fe8a:9061%wi0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2 inet 192.168.1.47 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255 ether 00:20:e0:8a:90:61 media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect (none) ssid WingNET 1:WingNET stationname FreeBSD WaveLAN/IEEE node channel -1 authmode OPEN powersavemode OFF powersavesleep 100 wepmode MIXED weptxkey 1 wepkey 1:128-bit But routes to the internet are still wanting to use the wi0 interface for some reason: [16:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:[~]# route get 206.30.215.2 route to: 206.30.215.2 destination: 206.30.215.2 gateway: 192.168.1.1 interface: wi0 flags: UP,GATEWAY,HOST,DONE,WASCLONED,PROTO3 recvpipe sendpipe ssthresh rtt,msecrttvar hopcount mtu expire 0 0 0 0 0 0 1500 3584 [16:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:[~]# I can change the interface on a per-route basis, but not globally: [16:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:[~]# route change 206.30.215.2 -iface fxp0 change host 206.30.215.2: gateway fxp0 [16:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:[~]# route get 206.30.215.2 route to: 206.30.215.2 destination: 206.30.215.2 gateway: fxp0:0.d0.59.aa.70.ec interface: fxp0 flags: UP,GATEWAY,HOST,DONE,WASCLONED,PROTO3 recvpipe sendpipe ssthresh rtt,msecrttvar hopcount mtu expire 0 0 0 0 0 0 1500 3582 [16:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:[~]# route get 206.30.215.4 route to: 206.30.215.4 destination: default mask: default gateway: 192.168.1.1 interface: wi0 flags: UP,GATEWAY,DONE,STATIC,PRCLONING recvpipe sendpipe ssthresh rtt,msecrttvar hopcount mtu expire 0 0 0 0 0 0 1500 0 [16:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:[~]# Some funky combination of: ifconfig wi0 -alias And restarting dhclient fixed the problem, but it took forever. 1.)

Sorry for neglecting to mention it, but I did that, multiple times, in multiple places. I _didn't_ do it the FIRST time, but I did do multiple times after that. Perhaps I should do it the first time, from now on? Would that prevent the problem? -- Jesse Guardiani, Systems Administrator WingNET Internet Services, P.O.
