I'm sorry to be so late in this bug report, I did report it once before
but not in as much detail. I hope that this is complete enough that
someone with more network hacking exp. than I can fix this one.
I can't add localhost to my routing table with newer kernels. I am using
net tools v1.41 and using the following lines:
/sbin/ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1 netmask 255.0.0.0 up
/sbin/route add -net 127.0.0.0 netmask 255.0.0.0
I get a "SIOCADDRT: No such device" when I run the route command.
ifconfig shows the device:
ifconfig lo
lo Link encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Bcast:127.255.255.255 Mask:255.0.0.0
UP BROADCAST LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:3584 Metric:1
RX packets:46 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:46 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 coll:0
I can still telnet to and use 127.0.0.1. This stopped working with 2.1.15
(2.1.14 does not have this problem). Attached is the output from
`egrep '=(y|m)' /usr/src/linux/.config`, which is the most bare boned
config setup I can run.
I have not narrowed this down to any one part of the patch, 2.1.15 was a
fairly big change to the networking layer and to be honest, my networking
skills aren't up to it (I tried).
