Hi all,
I have a strange situation on some of my SUN machines, my network
interfaces are not accepting the netmask entry in /etc/netmasks. The
IP addresses of the interfaces are Class C and their netmasks is
supposed to be 255.255.255.128 but when the machine is rebooted the
interface comes up with 255.255.255.0.
My /etc/hostname.hme1 file looks like this:
hostname-hme1 group netgroup broadcast + netmask + -failover
deprecated standby up
My /etc/netmasks file looks like this:
196.*.*.0 255.255.255.128
Could I just substitute the + sign after netmask with 255.255.255.128
to 'hard code' it? I am considering creating a script to set these
netmasks.
Any suggestions will be much appreciated.
