But everytime I execute "/etc/init.d/net.br0 restart", the following error occurs: * network interface br0 does not exist * Please verify hardware or kernel module (driver) [ !! ] Then I execute such command one more time, it works well. Does anyone know what's wrong with it? THX -- Shaochun Wang Jabber: fungusw@jabber.org
