Is it possible to use colinux on the local subnet without ndis or pcap bridging? After trying a few installations of coLinux it looks like the problem bridging has with hardware based TCP checksumming is going to come up often, as many new machines have gigabit network adapters with that capabality. Is there someway to use the other means to put a colinux adapter on the local subnet? The wiki appears to suggest that it may be possible on the both Windows Network Bridge adapter, Microsoft Loopback, and the colinux TAP adapter -- Frank Church ======================= http://devblog.brahmancreations.com |

When I first began using coLinux I often used the TAP adapter, but forgot about it as I had to do installations that did not require manual reconfigurations of the computer's networking. I think I have to add some code that can add the tap adapter automatically some of those adapters are detected. Yes guys it works.
