Are you perhaps bring the device up before calling nameif on this platform? That is a guaranteed way to make it fail.<br>
<br>
Is there any way you can try a non-busybox version of nameif on this particular platform to see how it behaves?<br>

I have been using nameif in different embedded environments (PPC and<br>686) without problems.<br><br>However, when trying to use it with an STPC Atlas (I think it is based<br>on a 486) and kernel 2.6.10 (busybox 1.0.0), it allways breaks on:
<br><br>if (ioctl(ctl_sk, SIOCGIFNAME, &ifr))<br> break;<br><br>I am not quite sure about the causes of the problem, but I have solved<br>it adding an option that allows to set the old name of the interface...<br>
(which I think it coulf be quite useful because you don't need to know<br>the MAC of your device).<br><br>I suppose that using this I could also eliminate the use of:<br>/* Has this device hwaddr? */<br>if (ioctl(ctl_sk, SIOCGIFHWADDR, &ifr))
<br> continue;<br><br>but I have maintained it for compatibility.<br><br>Has anybody experience the same problems with nameif?<br><br>Thanks<br><br>Miguel Ángel<br><br>----------------------------------------- PLEASE NOTE -------------------------------------------
