Hi Lennert!

We have a big trouble here, we have a so called "firewall" which has 5 eth
if.s and it is a sun ultra 5 ws. 2 ports should be used as an ethernet
bridge for filtering IPX between 2 ethernet segments.

I have read all the docs which came with the bridge-utils package.

On intel we use the same kernel, similar kernel config and it is working
fine.

on sparc we get this error message:

# brctl addbr br0
br_add_bridge: operation not supported

bridge module is loaded

distribution is debian woody/sparc

Thank you for your great help!
