Hi, I've been playing around with a packet capture project for a while now, the idea is to make a silent cap device (which works as a switch), with a rolling packet log - all of which i've sorted through brctl & pcap. I was just wondering, is it possible to do the following, but via changes in /etc/network/interfaces: brctl addbr sw0 brctl addif sw0 eth0 brctl addif sw0 eth1 brctl addif sw0 eth2 brctl addif sw0 eth3 brctl stp sw0 on Thing is, if I type the above manually, all works fine. If I use it in a script, which I link to the relevant rc.d it run the script at startup but hangs when it adds the first eth to the bridge. Bear in mind i've killed all relevant (conflicting) bits like dhcp etc. from the startup. -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/linux_adm/list-faq.html
