Moncreaff) Newsgroups: comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc Subject: 2.1 netccitt (hdlc,x.25,llc): is anyone using this? Date: Mon, 14 Oct 1996 21:05:47 GMT Organization: UltraNet Communications, Inc. Lines: 19 Message-ID: <3263a8ee.2199523@news.ma.ultranet.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: dominus.ultranet.com Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Newsreader: Forte Agent .99f/32.299 I've tried to use this but the kernel keeps crashing from bad pointers. When I look at the source there seem to be quite a few argument mismatches between like routines in the different protocol switch tables, ie pk_*, hd_*, and llc_* can't seem to agree on what parameters the *_output, _*ctlinput, etc routines take. I searched the FreeBSD web page [hackers archive, I think] and found one reference that suggested that the pk/llc interface had holes in it. Is there any more related information available out there? Has anyone produced a clean, working x25? btw: I had to write a program to talk to the socket to configure an x25 address on the interface, ifconfig apparently doesn't speak x25? although route does, though not in its manpage... trying to connect always crashed it. sometimes just resetting the interface does as well (ifconfig down/up) suggesting there may be a routing disconnect in netccitt as well....
