[mpls-linux-general] Re: (no subject)

[Sumeet A. <sum...@ho...>]

James, Javier and all members of mpls group,
Regarding my previous message to this group about 'Network card not getting 
detected in the new linux kernel'. Well...it was a wild goose chase (for me 
atleast :) ) but I was finally able to nail the problem mylsef. Solution to 
the question posted by myself, is to enable the "network  device support --> 
(whatever your ethernaet card is)" in "make menuconfig".

Having tackled that problem, there is this new one that has come up. I have 
mplsadm(ver 1.0) installed on linux-rh-2.4.18. I am making some test with 2 
pcs acting as lsr, and with mpls support enabled, and all the tools compiled 
and working (mplsadm). I set up 1 label in each computer, and add the IN 
entry on both with each label , i mean

THE 2 machines were configured by:

AT 192.168.1.35
---------------
route add -host 192.168.1.23 gw 192.168.1.23
ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.35 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.1.255 up
mplsadm -d
mplsadm -v -A -B -O gen:2614:eth0:ipv4:192.168.1.23 -f 192.168.1.23/32
mplsadm -v -A -I gen:1234:0
mplsadm -v -L eth0:0

AT 192.168.1.23
---------------
route add -host 192.168.1.35 gw 192.168.1.35
ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.23 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.1.255 up
mplsadm -d
mplsadm -v -A -B -O gen:1234:eth0:ipv4:192.168.1.35 -f 192.168.1.35/32
mplsadm -v -A -I gen:2614:0
mplsadm -v -L eth0:0

BUT..the results that I get from 'dmesg' was (tail of it):
MPLS version 0.996 11/21/2001 jl...@mi...
MPLS Tunnel interface
ds: no socket drivers loaded!
VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem) readonly.
Freeing unused kernel memory: 244k freed
Adding Swap: 266072k swap-space (priority -1)
mpls_set_labelspace: enter
mpls_set_labelspace: labelspace(0)
mpls_set_labelspace: exit
--------------------------------------

Now: 2 Questions.
Q1: Is 'ds: no socket drivers loaded!' doing (any harm)??
Q2. Why are my /proc/net/mpls_* files show nothing but :
lo	0
eth0	0

HELP ME...PLEASE
Thank you

-Sumeet
