Dear Madam/Sir,

I compile  R3.13.0.beta12 at LynxOS/x86 platform, LynxOS is real time 
UNIX ( www.lynx.com).

1.---------------------------
"make install.host" was finished, I start "caRepeater &" which reports that   
CAC: 13 if fnd
CAC: if fnd sl0
CAC: if was down
CAC: could not obtain if flags
CAC: could not obtain if flags
CAC: if fnd sl2
AC: if was down
CAC: could not obtain if flags
CAC: could not obtain if flags
CAC: could not obtain if flags
CAC: could not obtain if flags
CAC: could not obtain if flags
CAC: if fnd lo0
CAC: could not obtain if flags
CAC: could not obtain if flags
CAC: could not obtain if flags
CA Repeater: failed during initialization - no local IP address

"netstat -di" showed that
Name  Mtu   Network     Address            Ipkts Ierrs   
sl0*  296   <Link>                             0     0        
.... 
sl7*  296   <Link>                             0     0        
lo0   1536  <Link>                            74     0       
lo0   1536  loopback-ne localhost             74     0       
smc0  1500  <Link>0.0.c0.d5.48.f9             77     0        
smc0  1500  private.net FEL-lynxos1          77     0  

SLIP devices is sl0-sl7 with "down" status , Ethernet card is 
smc0  with "up" status (IP=192.168.3.12).     

I used the standard CONFIG_ENV with next parameters
EPICS_CA_ADDR_LIST=""
EPICS_CA_AUTO_ADDR_LIST=YES

2. --------------------------------------------
Next step, SLIP devisces has "up" status, caRepeter workes.

3.--------------------------
I rebuilt the libraries libCom.a and libca.a with a new settings  
EPICS_CA_ADDR_LIST=192.168.3.12
EPICS_CA_AUTO_ADDR_LIST=NO

SLIP devices is "down", Ethetnet interface is "up".

caRepeter does not finds IP address. 

I the sequence of network devices is inverse at LynxOS. 
lo0 is first device. 
Could you explain me the way for solution  of this problems? 

Best Regards,
Tatiana
