I posted a while ago about experiences compiling gated under PTX. Not even the usual suspects (:-) replied... The hard bit is trying to work out how to send/receive ICMP packets via the raw IP interface. The STREAMS based TCP/IP seems to be quite similar to SVR4 (even to the /etc/netconfig file) but is missing the rawip driver and support for SOCK_RAW in the socket module/library. The PTX documentation is really helpful. It says that applications need to use the TLI interface to access raw IP datagrams. Needless to say, the TLI stuff fails to mention anything at all about raw IP. Does anyone out there have any advice about this problem? Is there any relevant documentation. Have Sequent ported rawip to PTX? Does anyone have any working code for PTX which sends/receives ICMP that they could send me?
