Hi Guys,
Apologies for the off topic question here.
I have been trying to find out if its possible to zero the counters in
the ifconfig listing per interface on a linux box. I have read that
this can only be done if you pull down the interface, unload the driver
and reload.
Can I make a request to someone either writing the kernel or maybe its
the driver developers for the lan cards to make this available for
debugging purposes. I find it frustrating when I am trying to monitor
collisions/errors etc from the command line on remote systems without
interfering with the interface.
I guess my question is who should I ask (wish list) for this. Kernel
developers or the driver writers for the associated lan card?
BTW: I have been following the Skype pattern threads and will be testing
shortly once my collegue gets an iptables built and working.
Gary
