Hi!

----

While working on the IPv6 patch for ksh93 I found two issues with SCTP
support in OS/Net:
1. |getservbyname()| does not seem to support "sctp" as |proto| value,
e.g. |getservbyname(str, "sctp")| seems to return |NULL| in all cases.
2. |getaddressinfo()| seems to override the |ai_protocol| from the
|hints| with a default value, e.g. if |IPPROTO_SCTP| is set I get the
value |0| in |res|'s |ai_protocol|.

Are these bugs or is there a reason for that (quick look over the code
in OS/Net shows more cases where TCP and UDP are handled explicitly but
not SCTP; per
http://src.opensolaris.org/source/search?q=tcp+udp+-sctp&defs=&refs=&path=%2Fonnv&hist=
this seems to include libraries, commands, IPfilter and kernel code...
;-( ) ?

Bye,
Roland
