net.tap0 init script
Oh yeah and this also works with the old-style network init scripts. One of the machines I tried this on uses x86 and the other uses ~x86. *bump* I don't mean to be impatient but I think this is a major improvement on the current script and could save people many hours of confusion. *** Bug 64914 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** We already have a re-worked bridging script in CVS which incorporates your idea slightly. bridge_br0="eth0 tun0" ifconfig_br0=( "null" ) ifconfig_tun0=( "null" ) net.br0 linked to net.lo net.tun0 linked to net.lo This config will create a bridge called br0 and it will detect that tun0 does not exist and it will run net.tun0 start to create it. This will be in baselayout-1.11.6 *** Bug 62191 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Fixed in baselayout-1.11.6 |
