I'm getting the same problem on another RH6.0 installation. Here's some
more info (this is without an atalkd.conf file).
atalkd[4317]: restart (1.4b2+asun2.1.3)
atalkd[4317]: zip_getnetinfo for eth0
atalkd[4317]: zip gnireply from 38893.150 (eth0 12) <- this is my seeding
router
atalkd[4317]: setifaddr: eth0: Invalid argument
atalkd: difaddr(0.0): No such device
kernel: Too many routes/iface
Anybody with any clues?
