    Být tebou, zkusil bych používat misto “ifconfig/route”, příkaz “ip” z balíčku iproute2.

    Umí daleko více než starý ifconfig, který se uvadí už od příchodu 2.6. jádra jako obsolete.

    [1] Haaja > For sure, I’ll take a look at “iproute2″ package. And then I’ll write down some notes about it also.
