1. Loopback Interface Problems - RH 5.1
Hi
I'm just getting into Linux and I appear to have screwed up my lo
interface. After working through the DNS-HOWTO everything seemed to be
ok. However, next time I loaded Linux the Loopback interface didn't
come up. The netcfg tool showed it disabled and with no IP address.
If I do "ifconfig lo up" then the interface looks ok under ifconfig but
still shows no ip address under netcfg. At this stage the interface
doesn't ping. If I add a route to 127.0.0.0 through "route add ..."
then it pings ok and seems to work as expected for nslookup etc.
The question is - why doesn't the interface come up when the system
starts up like it used to ? I've been through all the stuff I did when
configuring DNS but can't see anything obviously wrong.
Any ideas ? Thanks in advance :)
