<diegonc>I am trying to test rumpnet on x86_64 (virtual box). So I thought I could add two NICs (one pcnet and one intel) in case it didn't work I would have network

<diegonc>but I'm finding trouble with the step : settrans -fgap /servers/socket/2 /hurd/pfinet -i /dev/wm0

<diegonc>wouldn't that override my main NIC configuration?

<diegonc>so, I went ahead and run `settrans -fgap /servers/socket/2 /hurd/pfinet -i /dev/wm0`. I got the following message returned;

<diegonc> settrans: /servers/socket/2: Numerical result out of range

<diegonc>damo22, does that ring a bell? May it be related to the fact that the "cable" is disconnected for this NIC?

<nexussfan>i tried running rumpnet on real hardware... got it to work after some debugging. try removing translator /servers/socket/26, kill all net related translaters, and then remove translator of /servers/socket/2

<diegonc>ah ok, I'll try that, thanks

<diegonc>hm, this got rid of all previous network processes

<diegonc> settrans -fg /server/socket/26

<diegonc> settrans -fg /server/socket/2

<diegonc> settrans -fg /dev/eth0

<diegonc> settrans -fg /dev/netdder

<diegonc>now ifup is giving "unkown interface /dev/wm0" :(

<nexussfan>did you set up the translator for /dev/wm0?

<diegonc>yes

<diegonc>should I add it to /etc/network/interfaces?

<nexussfan>sure

<diegonc>there's an entry there for eth0

<diegonc>ok, let me try

<diegonc>yes, now ifup recognizes the interface. I used an static address in Vbox NAT network

<diegonc>ping doesn't seem to work

<diegonc>I broke the network and can't go back to the previous config :P

<diegonc>got it back \o/

<diegonc>well I gonna check the rpctrace of ping tomorrow, gn

<p4r4D0xum>...
