Hi all,
I really don't get why the dummy interface doesn't show up at boot. The
module is loaded automatically with the following:
# cat /etc/modprobe.conf | grep dummy
install dummy0 /sbin/modprobe -o
dummy0 --ignore-install dummy
install dummy1 /sbin/modprobe -o dummy1 --ignore-install dummy
remove dummy0 /sbin/modprobe -r -o dummy0 --ignore-remove dummy
remove dummy1 /sbin/modprobe -r -o dummy1 --ignore-remove dummy
alias dummy0 dummy
options dummy numdummies=1
And I also added '/sbin/modprobe dummy0' into /etc/init.d/boot
Restarting the network daemon eventually show the dummy0 interface. Any
hints?
Thanks,
Jan
Anyone please?

The configuration file ifcfg-dummy0 (automatically created by YaST) is
the following:

BOOTPROTO='static'
BROADCAST=''
ETHTOOL_OPTIONS=''
IPADDR='10.0.0.1/24'
MTU=''
NAME=''
NETWORK=''
REMOTE_IPADDR=''
STARTMODE='auto'
USERCONTROL='no'
PREFIXLEN='24'

Thanks,
Jan
