The following fails on 

FreeBSD 3.0-980627-SNAP (CLUSTER) #4: Wed Sep  9 06:05:32 EDT 1998

Code is:


        /*
         * If there is a file descriptor to send then
         * construct a suitable rights control message.
         */
        if (fd >= 0) {
                ctl.fd = fd;
                ctl.cmsg.cmsg_len = sizeof(ctl);
                ctl.cmsg.cmsg_level = SOL_SOCKET;
                ctl.cmsg.cmsg_type = SCM_RIGHTS;
                msg.msg_control = (caddr_t) &ctl;
                msg.msg_controllen = ctl.cmsg.cmsg_len;
        }
 
        /*
         * Send to kernel...
         */
        if ((n = sendmsg(so, &msg, MSG_EOR)) < 0)
                syslog(LOG_ERR, "send: %s", strerror(errno));

returns with EINVAL. anybody out there who can look at this and say "of 
course", send me the "of course" on how to fix it... :=-)

oh yeah, anyone who wants to remind me of the cvsup command to update the 
snap, let me know. I'm too stupid to figure it out, even though I got it 
once. 

WRT to another discussion that occured earlier, we have found the freebsd
snapshots to be more reliable than the linux equivalent of "stable". Freebsd 
does set quite a standard here. That's not to say that Linux is not good. 
It's great. It's just that in terms of uptime/reliability, freebsd is 
better. 

thanks
