stupied userspace programs or kernel bug ?

[Adam Popik]

Hello ;
That is a problem:
linux#ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.1
linux#ifconfig lo:1 192.168.1.100 netmask 255.255.255.255 up
	       ^^^^
otherlinuxonsamenet#ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.2
otherlinuxonsamenet#ping 192.168.1.1
PING 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=2.20 ms
64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=19.6 ms

That was good but:
otherlinuxonsamenet#ping 192.168.1.100
PING 192.168.1.100 (192.168.1.100) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 192.168.1.100: icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=2.20 ms
64 bytes from 192.168.1.100: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=19.6 ms

That are no computers on net with ip 192.168.1.100.

Why that's works (on solaris, freebsd simply don't work - thats ok )?

PS Sorry for broken english
Adam
