Hi,
And thank you for your answer. Your configuration files look exactly like
mine. I indeed modified /etc/modules.conf (if not, the interface would not
show up).
Actually, when I do an 'ifup bond0 ', the bond0 interface gets configured,
eth0 gets enslaved but do not get any address and I have the following
error
messages:
Jan 14 14:45:48 akira ifup: Enslaving eth0 to bond0
Jan 14 14:45:48 akira ifup: Something broke getting the master 's IP address:
Cannot assign requested address.
Jan 14 14:45:48 akira ifup: Something broke getting the master 's destination
address: Cannot assign requested address.
Jan 14 14:45:48 akira ifup: Something broke getting the master 's broadcast
address: Cannot assign requested address.
Jan 14 14:45:48 akira ifup: Something broke getting the master 's netmask:
Cannot assign requested address.
Jan 14 14:45:48 akira ifup: Something broke setting the slave 's address:
Invalid argument.
Jan 14 14:45:48 akira ifup: Error setting the slave (eth0) with
SIOCSIFDSTADDR: Invalid argument.
Jan 14 14:45:48 akira ifup: Something broke setting the slave (eth0)
broadcast address: Invalid argument.
Jan 14 14:45:48 akira ifup: Something broke setting the slave (eth0)
netmask: Invalid argument.
I needed it to work quickly, so I commented the lines in 'ifup '
which enslaves eth*, and the lines in '/etc/init.d/network ' that
skip them. It works but I don 't like the solution.
