|We have a small problem <:-)!
|
|We have a xylogic micro annex XL and we need to rebuild the erpcd software
|following a nasty filesystem disaster. When attempting to build the
|software there is a problem with the 
|struct msghdr  in   <sys/socket.h>.
|
|Linux seems to want to define the struct with 
|struct msghdr;
|and claims that it shouldn't be a problem. The remote annex software fails
|in it's make complainiong that the size of a struct msghdr is unknown.
|
|Has anyone successfully built this software for RedHat 2.0? Or any other
|distribution for that matter? Perhaps there is a hack for the header file
|I don't know. We're using gcc 2.7.0 and kernel 1.2.13 (yeah, I know, it's
|Dark Age stuff....).
|
|Any help would be appreciated. Reply by posting and Email please.
|John Foster.

struct msghdr is fully defined in my kernel version (2.0.x). Maybe you
should upgrade.
