Yes. That would be great. Please pick up the latest LTP from: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/ltp/ltp-full-20071130.tgz?download, And i would also like to propose the following points: 1) You should know the way LTP-Network Tests are run. There are some inherent variables set and other environmental settings done both at the Client as well as the Server Side before these tests are executed. So, your patch (new test cases addition for RPC and TRIPC) should be able to adhere to all those norms. User should be able to execute your test cases automatically when they run LTP-Network tests, 2) You should also properly document what your test cases are all about, how they can be built, installed and executed and how their results should be parsed in a Proper README file in any of the sub-directories that your patch is going to create under ltp/testcases/network/rpc. 3) Include Copyright and GPLv2 definition at the beginning of each of your new Test cases for License conformance in LTP, 4) Last and not the least, please respond to somebody if they find problem(s) in executing your testcases by providing fixes, patches, etc on the mailing-list. Expecting a patch from you on this and much more contribution to LTP in future.
