[mpls-linux-general] Compiling rsvp-te

[Vincent P. <pi...@ai...>]

Hi all,

I have been using mpls-linux for a few months now and I am quite satisfied with it.
Like many people around I am trying different signaling protocols to establish LSPs over test networks.

I am currently trying Atlantis rsvpte (I know it is an independant project) and use rsvpd.0.70-rcx. 
Recently I have tried to recompile it, first on a 2.4.22 and then on a 2.4.20 kernel, both mpls-enabled with the latest linux-kernel.diff patch picked on James' P4 server. Unfortunately compiling rsvp did not work in both cases. It appears to have problems with many files located in my /usr/include directory

I see on the project page that you provide a glibc-kernheader rpm. I see also in your post of 2003-03-31 20:35 that you suggest this rpm should be used to re-compile MPLS utilities (like rsvpte, I assume).

Well, my problem is that there no documentation in this source rpm, just a patch and a usr/include tree. When (before or after compiling the kernel) and where should I apply the patch (or copy the files) so that it works ? And if I succeed applying it, do you think it will help to solve my problem ?

Thanks

Vincent Pinel

PS in case it may help I can provide the output of the failed compilation of rsvp.
