Sysctl syscall
Compiling the program which uses a lot "sysctl" syscalls, gives me this warning on Debian unstable: "warning: the `sysctl' syscall has been removed from 2.6.18+ kernels, direct access to `/proc/sys' should be used instead." Is it true? And what can be used as alternative which would work with both 2.4 and 2.6 kernels and would work with capabilities (sys/capability.h)? Accessing `/proc/sys' directly isn't such alternative as it doesn't work with capabilities. regards, -- Hasso Tepper Elion Enterprises Ltd.

Well it was unobsoleted in 2.6.19 if I followed the list correctly. >And what can be used as alternative which would work with both >2.4 and 2.6 kernels >and would work with capabilities (sys/capability.h)? >Accessing `/proc/sys' directly isn't such alternative as it doesn't work >with capabilities. -`J' -- - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
