From: Bill Fenner To: logix@foobar.franken.de Cc: FreeBSD-gnats-submit@freebsd.org Subject: Re: bin/7694: bogus error-message from route(8) Date: Thu, 20 Aug 1998 17:03:02 PDT route.c needs to be modified to report EDQUOT as "You just created a routing loop". Standard C has no error that means this, so FreeBSD uses EDQUOT since it's not something that has meaning for networking. (Or maybe rt_setgate() in /sys/net/route.c needs to undo the change and then report some other error; the code is there to detect this situation but not to remedy it...)
