Subject: Help: brctl problem

Hi，I had a problem with brctl. I got a brand new Ubuntu 14.04 system installed, and then installed the bridge-utile package with apt-get command. Then I issued: "brctl addbr testbr", it was ok, then I issued: "brctl setfd testbr 1", I got following output: "set forward delay failed: File exists". But when I show the testbr info, I found the forward delay time was set correctly. So why I got the above output? The brctl version is 1.5.

Thanks.
