Modify comit-xx number. A clone Raspberrypi Issue. about comitup HOT 5 CLOSED

So your idea is one should check if the chosen network name is already in the air and alter it if needed?

from comitup.

Yes, that is what I would expect to happen. In particular, avahi will refuse to publish a second "comitup-<nn>.local" on the network.

Note that the number is stored in /var/lib/comitup/comitup.json. Edit or delete that file and restart to change it.

I'm frankly surprised that we've encountered a collision already. If you are worried about it happening again, add an "n" or two to ap_name in comitup.conf.

Well I wanted to confirm if that behauviour was the espected.

@krebbi that might be a solution, but then another issue might be to do not then be able to recognize who is each one.

There is a way to force the number ( XX ) and the name of the network, isn't? Might be a better solution?

You can set a fix Wifi-Name for each device.
