Net problems

Hello !
I has written a shell script ( like netstart) for starting QNX network.
Problem:
At casual restart is given out:
“Send() Register with NetManager failedET:PARSE_ARGS()_FAILED”

And network stops the work !
But Net.ether82557 is in tasks list !

Any comments ?

Best regards,
Oleg


PS.

my script:
Net &
Net.ether82557 -l 3 -v &

sin reporting:
Net
Net.ether82557 !!

Net defaults to supporting only 2 logical networks – 1&2, you’re asking
for network 3 with the -l option to your driver. Try starting Net with
the -d3 option.

As I understand - given parameter determine quantity of supported logic
networks, instead of maximal number.
For default -d 2, so I can start maximum 2 drivers of network cards. (In my
case - only 1 driver started.)
Nevertheless I have checked up your assumption - does not work.

No that’s not the way it works, even if you have one lan but it’s setup as
lan 4 you have to tell Net to allocated 4 lans (-d4). You can trust
David’s information.

I had time to test this today – I am wrong, Net currently allows
you to use “slots” for drivers on higher numbered networks.

(I think this used to not be possible a few years ago, though, as I
remember that option being needed for Net. Of course, that is enough
years ago that I might just be hallucinating.)

No, I don’t think you’re hallucinating – or else I’m in the same alternate
universe as you are. I also remember that you had to tell Net as many
“num_drivers” as the highest numbered logical network you wanted to use.
Glad to hear this has been addressed now – one more small hurdle new users
don’t have to trip over anymore.

I’m 100% sure this was the case at least 2 years ago. I actually had
to modifiy Automap to deal with that (mostly for brouting)

I think, the universe has no borders :slight_smile:

“num_drivers” as the highest numbered logical network you wanted to use.

However, as far as I remember - we during 5 years used Net manager as is
described in the documentation.
It is strange to hear about other meanings of an option.
