Hi, I am currently trying to get a route dump in freebsd4.4 using sysctl with NET_RT_DUMP. I am running into problems while parsing the returned rt_msghdr structures. The sockaddr structures returned after the rt_msghdr are messed up and it is not giving correct gateway or netmask. For ex: when I am parsing the received route dump the netmask received is nonzero(random value) for a default route (which it returns as 0.0.0.0) and also netmask doesnt appear to be a sockaddr structure. Also for further routes gateway and netmasks are 0.0.0.0. I am parsing the received sockaddr structures to get all the values depending on flag bits set in rt_msghdr structure. If anyone can help me in this matter it will be a great help. Thanks, --Yatin __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
