[mpls-linux-devel] RTNETLINK answers: No such file or directory

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 422-6466

Hi everybody!

I would like to try mpls-linux (1.950), but I can only test it on debian =
systems. I followed (hope carefully) all the installation instructions fo=
und here:

http://www.elcom.pub.ro/~adrian.popa/mpls-linux/mpls-linux-docs/1-3-insta=
llation

My first try was on a Xeon 64, with debian etch. I tried also on an "old"=
 Xeon (i686) with debian unstable.

As suggested, I grabbed a 2.6.15.1 kernel, patched it correctly (with sma=
ll adjustments on the diff file), configured it as specified in the above=
 guide and installed the three required packets (iptables, ebtables and i=
proute).

The problem is that when I try to use "mpls" command, I always get the sa=
me error:

RTNETLINK answers: No such file or directory

I tried also to grab your iproute-2.6.11-1_mpls_1.950d.src.rpm source in =
the project download area... no way, same error.

I googled for RTNETLINK errors, but I didn't find anything that fixes my =
problem (this is the best hint I found :P http://www.docum.org/docum.org/=
faq/cache/28.html)

I'm completely stuck. If anybody could help, I would greatly appreciate.

Thank you in advance
Avio
