hi all,
i'm getting this error initializing the loopback device for ipv6.
the error message is
in6_ifattach_loopback: failed to configure the loopback address on lo0
(errno=55).
errno=55 is ENOBUFS, but i can get the loopback device up manually doing
sudo ifconfig lo0 inet6 ::1 up
also if i cause a forced shutdown of the system, the loopback device is
setup normally.
should i increase the number of mbufs for my system, it's a ti book 667.
the output of netstat -mb in both cases when loopback's been configured
normally and when it fails are the same :
69 mbufs in use:
66 mbufs allocated to data
2 mbufs allocated to socket names and addresses
1 mbufs allocated to Appletalk data blocks
79/202 mbuf clusters in use
421 Kbytes allocated to network (41% in use)
0 requests for memory denied
0 requests for memory delayed
0 calls to protocol drain routines
does anyone else have the same problem ? or know what's happening here ?
thanks,
vasisht
