Just to keep folks up to date: Sorin, thanks for that. I'm in the process of adopting it into the trunk - actually a variation on your patch which sets up the loopback dev in init_all_network_interfaces(), and is more configurable for 0,1,N loopback devs. The tests are great, thanks, we can start to run meaningful network tests on all platforms with those in place, I'll just be adding PASS/FAIL messages so we can automate those in our test farm. It'll all show up in anoncvs by the end of this week. Is there any call for me to supply an alternative patch on this forum? I won't do so unless people ask. Any replies to the list please, not me. - Huge
