RE: [coLinux-users] colinux 0.6.2 with pcap (snapshot coLinux-200 40710)

[Claude L. (QB/EMC) <cla...@er...>]

Hi,

However, I suspect the interface selection code has some problems. By =
example, on my system, I have multiple "Local Area Connection" entries. =
Something like this:

	Local Area Connection
	Local Area Connection 2
	Local Area Connection 3

I needed my system to bridge on "Local Area Connection". I have =
modified my xml file accordingly but coLinux never got attached to the =
proper interface. If I recall well, it has attached to the "Local Area =
Connection 3" instead.

So, to work around this problem, I have renamed the "Local Area =
Connection" to "Local Area Connection Broadcom" and after the proper =
modification has been done to the xml file, coLinux has attached to the =
correct interface.

Thanks,

Claude.

Hi George

I installed colinux 0.6.2 again, without tap, only with pcap, so I have =
only
one Adapter starting with the name "Local Area Adapter ..." . This =
works
very fine. No blue screen :-)=20

As you said, it seems colinux 0.6.2 takes the first adapter that =
correspond
partial to the name in the xml.

Greetings and thanks for your help!
Andreas
