Just about anything usefull in a non jailed world is useful in a jailed world. Other applications for this would be a jailed NAT router, ability to jail our dual homed DNS and web services where everything is fully redundant right down to dual nics in every box, dual switches and 2 IP's on seperate blocks with DNS running on 2 boxes at 4 IP's. We do things for Telco's and they are really big into redundancy by dualality, and that means 2 IP's inside a jail, or 2 jails. > > But at least, I think several other change(e.g. kernel routing > table implementation change, or prepare several virtual ones > on user-land) will also be necessary for several instances of > each routing protocol implementation to operate on a system.

But at least, I think several other change(e.g. kernel routing table implementation change, or prepare several virtual ones on user-land) will also be necessary for several instances of each routing protocol implementation to operate on a system. > >-Kernel treat "ip6_number" as just a same kind of extension > > for IPv6 as "ip_number" for IPv4. > > I'm not against them being sockaddr's. I think it depends on if we allow multiple addrs per address family. If we don't allow it, I think sockaddr is not better, because, -Need to explicitely forbid multiple same families specification(e.g. either of sockaddr is AF_INET) as API. -Kernel side also need to check (1) case, and do some additional work. (return error, or prefer the former or the latter) -When more sockaddr's are added in the future, things will be more complicated. If we allow it(multiple addrs per address family), then I think sockaddr list pointer member, and total sockaddr's number member should be added, and they are searched in prison_ip(), prison_ip6() or such like that in kernel. But again, I'm not sure how multiple addrs per address family is useful. If explicit needs for "multiple addrs per address family" are not clear now, I would like to try to implement just adding ip6_number member for this time.

VAIO F270, ep0 and -current
Greetings,
I have been in light contact with Warner over the course of the last couple
of weeks, and I am still at wits end with this one.
Currently, my laptop (VAIO F270 with a 3Com 589E pcmcia nic card) runs
3.3-REL with the PAO hacks, and works near-perfect. However, I would love
to use this machine as a development box, which means I should really be
running current on it.
Now, everything but pccard works, which fails with ENOTTY on the following
ioctl() call:
usr.sbin/pccard/pccardd/cardd.c, line 590:
if (ioctl(sp->fd, PIOCSDRV, &drv)) {
This is now the only thing holding me back. Anyone had a similar experience?
Relevant configuration follows.
pccard.conf
--
io 0x240-0x360
irq 3 5 10 11 13 15
memory 0xd4000 96k
card "3Com" "Megahertz 589E"
config 0x1 "ep0" ?
insert echo 3Com Megahertz Ethernet card inserted
insert /etc/pccard_ether ep0
remove echo 3Com Megahertz Ethernet card removed
remove /sbin/ifconfig ep0 delete
the kernel config is a chopped down PCCARD

It is very easy: create file on server side with content-type x-application/x-dialout for example and dial information in it. configure helpers to start program 'dialout' for type x-application/x-dialout and write script 'dialout' which use dialing information from x-application/x-dialout files.

Re: mode_perl DSO works on STABLE, not CURRENT

I appreciate that this is a sticky one to get mixed up in. The thing is that the libperl.a which is compiled as part of the mod_perl installation _is_ linked with -E. So I'm not sure what else to look at. I've submitted PR 14924 with the details and a precise How-To-Repeat, so if you have any further suggestions, your feedback copied to freebsd-gnats-submit would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Sheldon. To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
