I tried this query on linux-usb-users, with no luck... can my local linux community help, please?
I've been following the instructions at http://www.linux-usb.org/USB-guide/x555.html to set up a two-machine USB network with a Linux box at one end.
The command
ifconfig plusb0 192.168.0.1 pointopoint 192.168.0.2
fails with the error message
SIOCSIFADDR: No such device plusb0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device SIOCSIFDSTADDR: No such device plusb0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
Afterwards,
ping 192.168.0.2
gets no response (i.e. 100% packet loss.) Any ideas how to fix this, please?
plusb is loaded as a kernel module. The kernel version is 2.2.20.
Didn't they change the interface names? Have you tried "usb0" or "usbnet0" (both from vague memory) instead of plusb0?
