Hi

I'm trying to configure ethernet bridging on my Suse 9.1 kernel 2.6.4  I've already compiled the kernel with all the options required for bridging.  But the problem is the brcfg utility, i got the program and when try to enable bridging by typing the following command :  brcfg -enable.  I get the following error :
bash: /usr/sbin/brcfg: No such file or directory.  I do have the program in the refer directory but i don't know what the problem is.  Any help will be really appreciate.

Thanks!!

Leo

Ricky:
If you are sure that program is there then you may be logged normal user.
Kindly try it using login as root, i thin su will not work :)

lsantana:
I'm already logged as root, and still have the error.  I tried using normal user and later su, but can't get brcfg start successfully.

Ricky:
Then here we can have two resons ..
either the file is not in right place

or

permission problem !

If it coms in rpm as iptables do then consider reinstalling !

lsantana:
Ok Rickey maybe you're right, i will study this case in more detail, 'cause it is really important at work.  I'm probing an IPS with snort in-line, and as you know snort in-line needs to work in bridge mode.

Regards!!
