So I’m working on a server from home.
I do a cat /sys/class/net/eth0/operstate and it says unknown despite the interface being obviously up, since I’m SSH’ing into the box.
I try to explicitely set the interface up to force the status to say up with ip link set eth0 up. No joy, still unknown.
Hmm… maybe I should bring it down and back up.
So I do ip link set eth0 down and… I drive 15 miles to work to do the corresponding ip link set eth0 up
50 years using Unix and I’m still doing this… 😥
Awesome job!
Thanks! Yea, it was a really fun project to make back before there were any real options. And I’m glad the PiKVM team could expand upon it.
Somewhere along the way I lost the “based on” credit, likely whenever they fully modernized the stack. I wasn’t really keeping track, but did find it humorous when LTT said the creator complained someone based another project on them. I was like “Hmmmmmmm…” but just laughed because I didn’t make it for it to stagnate like it had been with me.
