Hi,

I'm trying to get some information about UDP packet drops.

netstat on freeBSD gives explicit information if packets are dropped due
to full socket buffers.

In Linux (RH6.2) netstat just talks about UDP 'packet receive errors'
Do these include socket buffer drops ?

If so, then what else are possible packet receiver errors

If not, then what is the best way to get this information

Thanks

Gaurav
