Hi,

Upon assigning an address to an interface, I get an error like this.  
For eg:

# ifconfig lo2 inet 10.20.3.12 0xff000000
in6_ifattach_addaddr: rtrequest failed. errno = 17  <<<<---- the error

The assignment succeeds, but still, any idea on what this error is and
why it is produced ?

Regards.
