Hi, I'm using io-net with the devn-vortex driver under QNX 6.3.2.

My system loads io-net then dhcp.client which successfully obtains an IP address from my LAN and connects to the network
:

en0: flags=8443<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,OACTIVE,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        address: 00:00:60:00:00:01
        inet 192.168.0.29 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 255.255.255.255


However the MAC address always appears as 00:00:60:00:00:01 on all my boards as shown above.

I have changed the MAC address to the boards correct ones using:

io-net -d vortex mac=001BEB0073A3 -p tcpip

when in the build scipt, or

mount -T io-net -o mac=12345678 devn-vortex.so
followed by restarting dhcp.client

after booting. 

Both methods do change the MAC address but this results in no valid IP address:

en0: flags=8043<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        address: 00:1b:eb:00:73:a3
        inet 0.0.0.0 netmask 0xff000000 broadcast 255.255.255.255

I can set the IP address to something using 

ifconfig en0 192.168.0.10

which results in the device appearing in the attached devices list on my router but alas still no network connectivity.

Has anyone experienced this before? I'm sure the solution is really not far off. I do require unique MAC addresses 
because several of my devices will be clustered onto LANs. By the way, I'm using the fairly new Versalogic Tomcat board.


Thanks in advance!
