Hey all, Thanks for looking through; I found a simple solution for now: http://lwn.net/Articles/229677/ seemed small enough that could be installed in the 2.6.18 kernel. Regards, -- Vimal -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to ecar...@nl.linux.org P

veth pair on 2.6.18 kernel

2010-07-30 Thread Vimal
Hi I am running kernel version 2.6.18, but it looks like veth pair support is not available, as I am not able to create pairs of devices using "ip link add type veth" command. Is there a backport of veth pair for this kernel? If not, is there a way to emulate the functionality? Thanks, -- Vima
