So, one more mail about my and my frends hacking of dhcp to make it more usable on a Aix machine. This time we done a lite more. http://www.acc.umu.se/~glance/dhcpd-hackers/dhcp310-aixport-1.patch A patch to update the Aix port. Aix 5.2 and so on has a working /dev/random and Aix 5.x has a vsnprintf. http://www.acc.umu.se/~glance/dhcpd-hackers/dhcp310-ifether-1.patch A patch to make everything compile with xlc. http://www.acc.umu.se/~glance/dhcpd-hackers/dhcp310-pcap+ndd-1.patch Heres a large one. This patch contains code to use libpcap for reciving packages under Aix and using NDD for sending packages. We decided to use libpcap because that the code became so much cleaner than using raw bpf and that the IBM-supported interface is using libpcap. The problem with using raw bpf under Aix is that it kind of acts up. It does all kind of weird thing and the IBM-bundled contains all the necessary workarounds for it. One other good thing is that libpcap is supported on lots of platforms. All the above code is tested against Aix 5.1 and Aix 5.3. Please test it, feedback is gladly welcome. -- Anton Lundin +46702-161604
