You need to build a kernel with:

CONFIG_NETLINK
CONFIG_RTNETLINK

enabled. Those are under 

'Networking options'
'Kernel/User netlink socket' CONFIG_NETLINK
'  Routing messages' CONFIG_RTNETLINK

At least till 2.4.16. In the 2.4.17-preX series, that options have gone
away (they're not in pre6), because they were always needed, so why give
the choice...

Easy solution: upgrade also your kernel to cooker's one.

[Cooker] initscripts problem?

2001-12-08 Thread David

I recentlyupgraded my initscrips to whatever is in cooker as of today
(saturday).  however, my network is broken now.  Here is the only message
I get:

Cannot open netlink socket: Address family not supported by protocol

I cant give too much more, as I cant use that box and the internet at the
same time.

We realized it yesterday, the new package is on its way ...

[Cooker] initscripts problem figured out

2000-08-30 Thread john . cavan

The failure of the install has to do with the current situation of
harddrake. Harddrake installs it's init script in /etc/init.d where
/etc/init.d is a proper directory and not a symlink to /etc/rc.d/init.d.
So what happens is that when you try to upgrade initscripts it can't
create the symlink for /etc/init.d on the existing hard directory.

Basically, I removed harddrake and then installed the initscripts
package, then re-installed harddrake. All went well from what I can
tell. Harddrake's spec needs a fix-up.
