Thanks for your reaction, which made me realize that I had to do more than one
change, to get a changed maxvifs working.
I think I managed that. Not in the proper way yet, and surely not the way it
IMHO should work.
Problem is that the actual package has to be recompiled for every machine
having a different number of vifs. And you need to know the number of vifs of
the (unkown) target machine at compile time.
And that where ...... IMHO the package should be machine independent !
So what I would like to archive is:
- start the program
- do an OS-call to read/obtain the maxvifs number
- open structures based on the obtained maxvifs
- start the actions where the program is designed for
Do not know if this is possible, but compiling the package maxvif number /
os-instance depended .....is bad !!
So you would help me with an OS-call/method providing the maxvifs number on the
actual OS-instance .....
Of course this is just a question. As far as I can see now, the problem is not
in the os.
