ifconfig cannot open /proc/net/dev

Hey,

Just installed a new CentOS with Interworx. Everything fine, BUT. I can't add new ipadresses cause there is no network device.
When i do 'ifconfig' i get the following:

[root@cobra ~]# ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1C:C0:A7:25:9F
inet addr: Bcast: Mask:255.255.255.0
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1

RX bytes:218646077 (208.5 MiB) TX bytes:12513511 (11.9 MiB)
Interrupt:220 Base address:0x2000

[root@cobra ~]#But when i do as root 'su iworx' and then '/sbin/ifconfig' it gives the following error:

Warning: cannot open /proc/net/dev (No such file or directory). Limited output.
Warning: cannot open /proc/net/dev (No such file or directory). Limited output.
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1C:C0:A7:25:9F

Interrupt:252 Base address:0x4000
I restarted it multiple, even tryed to reinstall the whole OS. Nothing.. How to fix?

So it seems its something with interworx which can't load ifconfig. I already mounted /proc/ again, didnt work at all..

Hi Marvin,

Did you get this problem resolved? If so, what did you have to do? My guess would be it's related to some kind of lockdown of the /proc filesystem.
