Hope for someone to point me at how to easiest do a user space "route delete -host xxxx"-similar thing in the kernel of FreeBSD3. The problem is the reference count. Only calling rtrequest(RTM_DELETE, ...) will only free the route if refcount = 0. I added a loop to call all pfctlinput()s with REDIRECT to clear all cached routes in the upper layer protocols. This works fine, it clears all tcp and udp sockets. Still though, what do I do regarding the cached routes of ICMP and the likes? This isn't taken care of by my attempts. Still, "route delete" fixes this. What functions to call? Do I need to send something over the routing socket? /Mattias Pettersson To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
