With kernel newer than 2.0 is ifconfig obsolete network configuration tool. But a lot of distribution (maybe all) have this tool still in their repository. In ifconfig manpage should be information about this ifconfig obsoletion. I am attaching patch which will add this information into manpage WARNING: Ifconfig is obsolete on system with Linux kernel newer than 2.0. On this system you should use ip. and print message (to stderr) ################################################# # WARNING: ifconfig is obsolete on this system. # ################################################# if you try to use ifconfig. But asked operation will be maked. I will very appreciate if you will apply any part of this patch. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
