Well, in case you don't know it, you're using ifconfig to define interfaces, too. For example in Qemu you'd do: $ ifconfig /dev/net/etherpci/0 192.168.0.1 up
and there it is. To configure a (non-working) loopback device, you'd say: $ ifconfig loop0 127.0.0.1 up
Bye, Axel.
aah I didn't know you needed an IP address as well
