auto_parms [68] error

TrustNo1 — Mon, 29 Sep 2003 12:10:37 GMT

After making the change from an ATM , instance [0] to a 100BT , instance [1] primary lan card. At boot, I'm getting the following error;
"Auto_Parms [68] LanDeviceList Subscript must be smaller than 1024k."
I see no direct problems as a result of whatever this is telling me.

Thanks, ~jdk

I would suspect some typo in netconf file ?

Post the contents.

My first thought would also be a typo in /etc/rc.config.d/netconf but auto_parms is a script so you could look at it and see what it is trying to do at line 68.

Quick fix:

set_parms command, based on prior posts.

Sundara,
Looks like the following entires were in the netconf file twice. Once where they should be, and once at the end of the file.
IP_ADDRESS[1]=xxx.xx.xx.xxx
SUBNET_MASK[1]=255.255.0.0
INTERFACE_NAME[1]=lan1
BROADCAST_ADDRESS[1]="xxx.xx.xx.xx
LANCONFIG_ARGS[1]="ether"

Mark,
Sounded like a good idea!

Steven,
Yes, that was tempting, and the most logical answer...although in this case, I don't think that would have fixed it, in fact I'm not exactly sure, what it would have said , mabe the same error....

I'll give the fixed file a shot and see what happens.

Thanks All!! , ~jdk
