SOLVED: CASE CLOSED
Look below for solution
Ok, another ipx thingy with RHEL 3.
I have checked out a few of the ipx help threads in this forum and tried it out myself.
What I did is,
install the ncpfs-2.2.4 and ipxutils-2-2.4-5.FC3
I did a
Code:
ipx_configure --auto_interface=on --auto_primary=on
and get a classic ipx_configure: socket: Adress family not supported by protocol
Then I tried to recomplile my kernel with the help of the sticky: Red Hat custom Kernel compilation mini-How-To for Red Hat 8-9.
During the <make menuconfig> stage, i saw <ipx> marked as M, as module, I put it as *, to include it. Saved and exit and follow the rest of the steps. Everything seems fine and rebooted.
Then I tried
Code:
ipx_configure --auto_interface=on --auto_primary=on
again but it didnt work.
I tried to conenct to my novell any way but it didnt work. Anyway, I have a RH7 and it is working well with novell.
Where did i go wrong ?
Or is there another way to get it to work ?
