I have an ethernet interface, described as follows...
eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:00:F8:08:44:59
inet addr:192.168.2.152 Bcast:192.168.2.255
Mask:255.255.255.255
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:0 errors:6 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:6
collisions:0 txqueuelen:100
Interrupt:9 Base address:0x6500
But I wan't to have it as a point-to-point interface 192.168.1.153
But neither net-tools 1.45 nor 1.52 work... The command I'm
trying is:
ifconfig eth1 192.168.1.152 pointopoint 192.168.1.153 netmask
255.255.255.255
I've tried with and without the netmask, also tried various
combinations with dstaddr... No effect.
strace shows that it is making the right ioctls() and my ppp
interfaces are correctly point-to-point.
(BTW, is there a way to make strace expand the arguments to
an ioctl?)
Any ideas??
