[Xen-users] network scripts

["Lockenvitz, Jan \(EXT\)" <Jan.Lockenvitz.extern@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

i had a problem with the network script "network-bridge" (after xend start network was down). Because i have a german localized Linux version the MAC-address of my eth could not be found ("Harware Adresse" instead of "HWadd"). I changed the network script so it is working for me and hopefully is independent of localized versions:

     if ifconfig veth0 2>/dev/null | grep -q veth0 ; then
-       mac=`ifconfig ${netdev} | grep HWadd | sed -e 's/.*\(..:..:..:..:..:..\).*/\1/'`
+       mac=`ip link show ${netdev} | tail -1 | sed -e 's/.*\(..:..:..:..:..:..\) brd.*/\1/'`
        if ! ifdown ${netdev} ; then
                # if ifup didn't work, see if we have an ip= on cmd line
                if egrep 'ip=[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+:' /proc/cmdline ;

Hope this helps others too!

regards,
Jan
