The first param to socket() was 0x1F, I looked up what it meant: according to socket(2), it is the specification of the communication domain (whatever that means), the value 31 should be PF_XPT or pseudo_AF_XPT, which has something to do with the BPF (Berkley Packet Filter, I suppose), according to /usr/include/sys/socket.h. So I included pseudo-device bpf in my kernel but it doesn't help. (Honestly, I don't know at all what I'm doing here, I'm just experimenting) Somebody more into the materia than me? Possibly even some help arising? ;-) Cheers Thomas Stratmann To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
