Hi all,

Thank you. I also wrote a small proggy using this feature in order to manage dvb network interfaces.
Hope it could be useful for somebody.

HI Lymes,

I have improved your program to support multiple cards
and multiple network interfaces. I changed -a <adapter>
option, to be compatible with szap -a <adapter>.
Pid is now added with -p, adapter and its network demux
are selected with -a and -n, and text output is improved
to return created dvbX_Y for easy integration with ifconfig.

Now it is for the first time possible to write a proper
perl script (also included) that adds dvbnet interface
and returns its iface name so ifconfig can follow with
proper interface name.
Could you think on the long run about a way to run this program as a deamon?

This would mean that it reads it config from a file from e.g. /etc/dvb_net.conf, forks itself in the background and behaves like all the other deamons in a unix environment?


BTW it would be nice to GPL-ize the source...
:)

I'll apply your update to CVS.

Holger
