RE: [leaf-user] Any feedback for Bering-uClibc packages in "testing"?

[David P. <dp...@li...>]

I also use etherw and it works fine.  I have not tried to use ethers.

I have pptpd set up and it works locally.  I can't get it to work
remotely but I don't know what the problem might be.  I don't think
anything in the various networks is blocking but I can't get my router
to 'see' any remote connection attempts.  I would be happy to work with
anyone more knowledgable than me to track down the problem either with
my setup or the package.

I have tproxy setup but it doesn't work well for me.  I may have a DNS
problem but again I'm not knowledgable enough to track it down.  Again I
would be happy to work with anyone to find out whether its me or the
package.

Thanks for all your efforts folks.  Let me know if I can help.

I'm using two of these packages: beep.lrp and etherw.lrp.

Beep works just fine.

Ether-wake also works without problems. Only thing is, that the
/etc/ethers lookup function doesn't work, but I suppose this might have
to do with support by uClibc? If there is interest for it, I'm willing
to write a quick and dirty patch to read this ethers file.

Anyways thanks for packaging and if I have some time, I'll test some
other packages.
