What's curious. When /etc/pccard_ether is called, NIC is already OK. Because, when pccard NIC is activated, /etc/pccard_ether is invoked by pccardd. > rtsol is run again in /etc/rc.network6 where it succeds in running. > The whole IPv6 section might be able to be removed from > /etc/pccard_ether. Nope. In many case, pccard NIC doesn't come to ready before running /etc/rc.network6. And, it doesn't act in mobile environment. Actuall problem is that /etc/rc.network6 wrongly setups pccard NIC. With existing rc.network6, if no NIC is available, psuedo interface will be setuped wrongly. I'm thinking about having the variable that holds the list of pccard NICs. -- Hajimu UMEMOTO @ Internet Mutual Aid Society Yokohama, Japan ume@mahoroba.org ume@bisd.hitachi.co.jp ume@FreeBSD.org http://www.imasy.org/~ume/ Hajimu UMEMOTO wrote: > > > The IPv6 section of /etc/pccard_ether calls rtsol ${interface}. > > This produces and "rtsol not configured" or similar. > > What's curious.

That is fine. Jim -- "It's a damn poor mind that can only think of one way to spell a word." -- -Andrew Jackson State Changed From-To: open->feedback I just committed the fix to avoid doing rtsol to psuedo interface (etc/rc.network6 1.10 -> 1.11). Does this fix your problem? State Changed From-To: feedback->closed I just committed the change to pccard_ether, too (1.17 -> 1.18). Thank you for your report. |
The IPv6 section of /etc/pccard_ether calls rtsol ${interface}. This produces and "rtsol not configured" or similar. rtsol is run again in /etc/rc.network6 where it succeds in running. The whole IPv6 section might be able to be removed from /etc/pccard_ether.
