I am trying to port a cable modem (roadrunner) login program written for =
linux to freebsd 2.2.7 before the Dec 15 deadline. Should have been =
suspicious when it compiled cleanly without error message.
The program runs up to the point of setting up a TCP socket to request a =
login sequence using functions:
socket()
htons()
bind()
listen()
and then quits with errnum for "Operation not supported".
The function calls seem to be correctly written and do not return any =
errors when called (except for listen()).
Is this a correct sequence to establish a passive tcp connection? Is =
there a better way to do it? Is there a knowledge base for converting =
linux code to run on FreeBSD? References for the correct way to write =
code to establish tcp connections?
If a review of the code segment would be helpful, it is brief and =
follows.
Thanks
