There is lo0 interface in FreeBSD, no lo. But openrc installs /etc/init.d/net.lo. So I see the messages * Bringin up interface lo * ERROR: interface lo does not exist * Ensure that you have load the correct kernel module for you hardware * ERROR: net.lo failed to start at boot time. Reproducible: Always # uname -sr FreeBSD 9.1-Gentoo # ifconfig | grep lo lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 16384 # equery belongs /etc/init.d/net.lo * Searching for /etc/init.d/net.lo ... sys-apps/openrc-0.11.8 (/etc/init.d/net.lo) # equery belongs /etc/init.d/net.lo0 * Searching for /etc/init.d/net.lo0 ... sys-apps/openrc-0.11.8 (/etc/init.d/net.lo0)
are all bsd systems like that ?
(In reply to comment #1) > are all bsd systems like that ? I think all BSD has lo0. FYI, A list of links to man pages. please search 'lo0' in each page. * FreeBSD (lo0 is not included in man page. Instead of URL handbook) http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/network-routing.html man page http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=lo&apropos=0&sektion=0&manpath=FreeBSD+9.1-RELEASE&arch=default&format=html * NetBSD http://netbsd.gw.com/cgi-bin/man-cgi?lo++NetBSD-current * OpenBSD http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=lo&sektion=4 Others, I think BIND's test script is helpful to you. http://opensource.apple.com/source/bind9/bind9-44/bind9/bin/tests/system/ifconfig.sh
It seems that this is already solved in the git tree?
*-fbsd is gone.
