RE: [mpls-linux-general] Questions regarding ldp_linux

 I think I had the same problem. The ldp protocol  seems working ok but, you
don't get the labels and fec in the kernel.
Did you download the LDP from CVS ?. If so , if you edit the Makefile you
will find at the top this lines:
CFLAGS = -g -I. -Wall -D__LDP_LINUX__ -Werror 
#-DMPLS_LINUX 
 you have to uncomment the definition of MPLS_LINUX.

CFLAGS = -g -I. -Wall -D__LDP_LINUX__ -Werror  -DMPLS_LINUX 

then complile again.

I hope this will help you.
