Hi!
First the good news:
I applied the 0.16.5 patches to the diald-0.16 sources and compiled
successfully. Fine.
Now for the bad: Diald-0.16.5 would not dump monitor information.
An `echo "monitor /etc/diald/modem.monitor" > /etc/diald/modem.fifo'
procduced the following syslog entries:
Aug 3 11:15:00 banshee diald[5463]:
FIFO: full monitor connection to monitor /etc/diald/modem.monitor requested
FIFO: could not open pipe /etc/diald/modem.monitor: No such file or
directory
There cannot be any permission problems because everything (echo, diald)
were run as root. Of course fifo /etc/diald/modem.monitor does exist.
Morever, it did work with previous diald-0.16 as I did not change anything
but compile the new diald and install it.
I solved the problem when I *removed* the patch (beginning at line 653 of
diald-patch-0.16.5) in diald.c:
@@ -431,7 +468,7 @@
if (stat(fifoname,&sbuf) < 0 || !sbuf.st_mode&S_IFIFO) {
syslog(LOG_INFO,"FIFO: %s not a pipe.",
buf+k);
- } else if ((fd = open(buf+k,O_WRONLY))<0) {
+ } else if ((fd = open(buf+k,O_WRONLY|O_NDELAY))<0) {
syslog(LOG_INFO,"FIFO: could not open pipe %s: %m",
buf+k);
} else {
That is, I cut `|O_NDELAY' and recompiled.
Now diald-0.16.5 happily dumps monitoring info again.
Can anyone dump monitor info with an unmodified diald-0.16.5 ?
Regards, Walter
