Hi all, Is there anyway to have more than 2 dummy interfaces? I need more of them but the system refuses to create it :P How can avoid this issue? Thanks.

the more easy way is to not use different dummy interfaces. but if you need that then probably you must recompile dummy interface driver because that one dowes not support multiple interfaces Why do you need many of them anyway ----- Original Message ----- From: "Luis Miguel Cruz" <luismi@b2bi.es> To: <lartc@mailman.ds9a.nl> Sent: Friday, September 17, 2004 10:44 AM Subject: [LARTC] dummy interfaces limit?> Hi all, > > Is there anyway to have more than 2 dummy interfaces? > I need more of them but the system refuses to create it :P > > How can avoid this issue? > > Thanks. > Luis Miguel Cruz. > _______________________________________________ > LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl > http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/ >_______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
