Hi all,

I have QNX 6.5.0 running on two pandaboards (Board1 & Board2) connected by a crosswire ethernet cable. I am using a ASIX USB to Ethernet dongle on both the boards since for some reason the mac address of the ethernet port on both boards are all 0's. I use the following lines in the build script to start up io-pkt-v4 

        io-pkt-v4 -dasix promiscuous,mac=<MAC ADDRESS>,verbose=4 -ptcpip
        waitfor /dev/socket
        if_up -p en0
        display_msg Getting Static IP
        ifconfig en0 <IP> netmask 255.255.254.0
        ifconfig en0

The following are the sloginfo for both boards
