enable multicast router
Hi, I were running FBSD4.5 and try to enable multicast router but couldn't make it. Can any body help? Thanks, Grace Lin === what I did: 1) went into /usr/src/sys/modules/ip_mroute_mod compiled and make ip_mroute module. I added ip_id.c on SRC and change CFLAGS += -DMROUTE_LKM -DMOUTE to CFLAGS += DMROUTE_KLD from Makefile due to -DMROUTE_LKM need lkm.h file but coudn't find it in sys directory. 2) after sucessful created, installed and loaded ip_mroute into kernel I ran mrouted as: #mrouted mrouted: 22:21:38.072 can't enable Multicast routing in kernel: Operation not supported 3) ran netstsat # netstat -g Virtual Interface Table is empty Multicast Routing Table is empty IPv6 Multicast Interface Table is empty IPv6 Multicast Routing Table is empty ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

You probably would need to recompile your kernel with the appropriate options defined. Some kernel modules can be loaded by themselves (commonly things like device drivers), whereas some other ones have more complex dependencies, and you do better to build a kernel with everything they need defined. However, it is likely that upgrading to a recent version of FreeBSD (4.10 or later), would not only come with the multicast stuff built in, but also be a good idea in terms of security. -- -Chuck ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
