[Linux-decnet-user] dnprogs-2.26 on mandrake 10.0

[<Mik...@co...>]

I've installed dnprogs-2.26 on Mandrake 10.0, on its 'standard' 2.6 kernel.
I couldn't get it to work using the 'redhat' decnet script,
Although It seemed to change the  MAC address correctly.

But it works using the slackware/caldera decnet script, with the -f switch
to the startnet command.


I'm using it to connect to 2 emulated PDP11s (charon11 under windows NT)
Running RSX11M+

but as far as I can tell do far
dncopy, dndir & dntype all work fine,
so it all looks very promising.
Thanks too all involved!


My only concern at the moment is
dnping works pinging the PDP11 machines,
but if I dnping the local machine (ie; dnping mylinuxbox)
Linux hangs.

Is this usual?
