I've got one daring proposition. As you probably know, the ifconfig utility is obsolete since kernel 2.2 (released 15 years ago) so that it doesn't show you all requested information, sometimes it shows you things that don't exist and sometimes it does something else than you asked.
It's always nice to back up such claims with examples, like Jan for did here: http://inai.de/2008/02/19 Note that meanwhile it looks like there is development on net-tools again. There is even a git repo: http://sourceforge.net/p/net-tools/code/ci/master/tree/ Did anyone check whether they already fixed some of the concerns or plan to? Also I see a chance here to get the patches we have in the package merged upstream. cu Ludwig -- (o_ Ludwig Nussel //\ V_/_ http://www.suse.de/ SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
