- I need the ablility to telnet into my own system (which is a Consensys V4
- SVR4 unix), due to wanting to run a MUD (Multi-User-Dungeon).
-
- For some reason, I can not ping or telnet into my own system. can
- anyone give me some leads, or do i need to purchase a WD8003 controller
- and install the WD driver package?
-
- the current error message I get is :
-
-
- The following commands were run from /etc/inet/rc.inet
- /usr/sbin/ifconfig lo0 localhost up
- /usr/sbin/ifconfig emd0 shyguy up -trailers
- ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCGIFFLAGS): Invalid argument
-
-
- the last statement will go away when I use the WD driver, but I'm
- not thrilled about installing driver software without docs/actual card.
-
- any ideas? all inputs will be considered...
