Hi,
I'm just working on getting netcf integrated into Gentoo. See also:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=295993
But I have some basic questions first.
I have installed netcf and put the netcf.aug into
/usr/share/augeas/lenses/netcf.aug.
Is it correct to put the aug file into this directory or should it remain in
the default installation path (/usr/share/netcf/lenses).
I've never used an Augeas based tool before, sorry for this question ;-)
Is or should ncftool/netcf be able to read existing interfaces?
So I could just use it on top of another network configuration.
e.g.:
- Gentoo's Initsystem creates + configures interfaces
- netcf provides read-only information about them to further services like
libvirt
Don't worry, my plan is to integrate it fully into Gentoo, but depending on it
completely makes it hard establishing it in existing environments, so this
read-existing-interfaces capability would be quite interesting, I just don't
know whether this is already possible as 'ncftool list' displays nothing here
without providing an XML based definition.
Thank you!
Regards,
Elias P.
