Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: net-tools
I'm running 32-bit Lucid and the rx bytes output from ifconfig resets
every 4GB or so. This is not what is desired. Desired output would be to
show accurate rx bytes.
net-tools version 1.60-23ubuntu2.
To replicate this bug, run ifconfig, pump a lot of data through the
interface and see that RX bytes reset at 2^32-1 bytes.
Is there a fix for this (apart from running 64-bit) ?
