Hi.

Before I begin, I'd like to say I've read the news archives and the mail
archives, and understand that this works under -current.

What I'd like to know is if it'll work under 2.1.5-Release ?

I see the /compat/ibcs2 directory exists, and it's dev looks like

lrwxrwxr-x  1 root  wheel         9 Jul 14 23:30 X0R -> /dev/null
lrwxrwxr-x  1 root  wheel         9 Jul 14 23:30 nfsd -> /dev/null
lrwxrwxr-x  1 root  wheel         9 Jul 14 23:30 null -> /dev/null
lrwxrwxr-x  1 root  wheel         9 Jul 14 23:30 socksys -> /dev/null
crw-rw-r--  1 root  wheel   41,   1 Jul 14 23:30 spx

(i created spx with mknod spx c 41 1)

I've also included spx_hack as an option in my kernel. It doesn't
work however. I've changed the hostname from chain.iafrica.com to
chain to quite a few others (i.e. under 8 letters).

I've also gone to /dev, and MAKEDEV socksys : none of it helps.

It gives the following error(s) :

[chain] /usr/wp/wpbin# xwp
