Virtualization Problem: ifconfig SIOCSIFVNET

Hello,

When I execute the command to put the vnet inside the jail:
[CMD=""]ifconfig epair0b vnet 1[/CMD]

I get the following error message:
Code:
ifconfig: SIOCSIFVNET: File exists

I looked up SIOCSIFVNET in attempt to trace the problem but had no luck. Any idea how to go around this? Or what the problem actually means? Where can I find the file for SIOCSIFVNET and what is it exactly?:q
 
Hello,

I'm still looking at this problem. I'd appreciate any help. I've traced the problem back to VIMAGE. The place where I found the word "SIOCSIFVNET" is in vimage.c, however, I was unable to figure out what the problem is. Nowhere in vimage.c do I see an echo of "File exists". So I'm guessing it is an ifconfig thing rather than a VIMAGE thing.


Again, any help is appreciated.
