Date: Thu, 22 Oct 1998 12:45:50 +0100 X-Mailer: Microsoft Exchange Server Internet Mail Connector Version 4.0.837.3 Sender: owner-freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi all i am desperately looking for the SIOCSARP, SIOCGARP and SIOCDARP ioctl options but I can't find them in the file sockio.h. I am using 2.2.6 and the CD says it is based on Berkeley 4.4 BSD and in W R Stevens book on Unix network Programming (p.323) it says that these ioctl options are in 4.3 BSD. So my question is : where are they in FreeBSD 2.2.6 ?? A Linux bloke also told me that in Linux they now have changed the way to do system calls to the arp table (no more ioctl). It has to do with something called netlink (?) Has FreeBSD preceded Linux on that ?
