Hi,
I have the following line in my sysconfig,
ifconfig_sl0="inet myhome.sfsu.edu 130.212.10.163 netmask 0xffffff00"
And at start up, right after the message for this statement, I have
the following message
>ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCAIFADDR):File Exits.
Any idea why there's file exit? I have the similar line after that
for tun0 and I don't get the same "File Exists" message.
Thanx!
