Hi, when you issue a RTM_GET request to the routing socket for a non-existing route, the write() to the socket fails with errno=3, ESRCH, which is printed by the "route" command as route: writing to routing socket: No such process The error message is kind of misleading, i wonder if we can replace the return value in sys/net/rtsock.c with ENOMSG /* No message of desired type */ ? Does any userland application depend on ESRCH ? cheers luigi ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Luigi RIZZO, luigi@iet.unipi.it .
