I'm trying to set up tinc on a Solaris 8 machine, but am having some problems setting the MAC addres on the tun0 interface to fe:fd:0:0:0:0 The error I'm seeing is: ifconfig: set_phys_addr failed: dl_errno 7 errno 0 ifconfig: failed setting mac address on tun0 Has anyone successfully setup tinc & tun0 on a Solaris machine? Any help would be appreciated. Regards, Tim Evans -- ************************************************************* * Dr. Tim Evans Email: tim.evans@aepona.com * * IT Manager * * Aepona Ltd.

The Solaris tun interface has no MAC address so you can't (and don't need to) set it. You can also omit "ifconfig -arp". -- Met vriendelijke groet / with kind regards, Guus Sliepen <guus@sliepen.eu.org> -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
