I have the famous problem with a newly installed debian lenny AMD64
unable to find protocol number with getprotobyname()
Yes I know it has something (I have read) to do with UDP.
grep UDP /etc/protocols
udp17UDP#user datagram protocol
However I can successfully, send and
The code in spamdyke is very simple it just call
getprotobyname(udp), and if the returned pointer is null it logs the error
message.
My guess is that getprotobyname for some reason hasn't been able to read the
/etc/protocols.
I have made a small testprogram using getprotobyname and it works
