The following reply was made to PR misc/154943; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Piotr KUCHARSKI <nospam@42.pl> To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org, nospam@42.pl Cc: Subject: Re: misc/154943: ifconfig gifX create on existing gifX clears IP Date: Mon, 21 Feb 2011 21:00:26 +0100 Uhm. I guess it's kind of a false alarm, not regression from 8.1 :) The problem is this: # getent hosts create 85.128.167.158 create.pl so ifconfig sees that gif5 interface exists and so decides I wanted to change the IP and resolves "create", gets the IP, and basically executes: # ifconfig gif3 85.128.167.158 ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCAIFADDR): Destination address required IMHO it still should not clear the old address in this case.
