The emulation of the Linux UDP calls in 2.2.5 is broken, unfortunately. If you can, upgrade to -stable. If this isn't possible, you should be able to build a new Linux LKM by replacing the files in your system's /usr/src/sys/i386/linux with those from -stable, then going to /usr/src/lkm and saying: # make # make install (You will have to reboot after this). The files from -stable you need are available from ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-stable/src/sys/i386/linux Sorry about this. If you have an opportunity to install the FreeBSD-2.2.6 beta when it arrives (a couple of weeks at most) and check Matlab on it we would be *VERY* appreciative. We would like to be sure that as many as possible of the shrinkwrapped applications that are available work properly on 2.2.6 before it's released. -- \\ Sometimes you're ahead, \\ Mike Smith \\ sometimes you're behind. \\ mike@smith.net.au \\ The race is long, and in the \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ end it's only with yourself. \\
