Yep, me again,
After getting DIP compiled with help from many helpful folks, it
works fine, just change LD to gcc and let gcc pass the arguments to ld.
But, after using ELF DIP for a week or two, I have noticed a
problem that only occurs with only the ELF version. DCC sends in IRC do
not work, nor do incoming ftp gets. I'm using SLiRP and had never had
this problem with dip in a.out.
The error message from DCC sends is Host is unreachable, or no
route to host. The error message from FTP is, ERROR xxx (some number)
Illegal Seek.
As stated before, this problem only arises using an ELF compiled
DIP, and does not occur with an a.out version. But, AFAIK, it could just
be a problem with SLiRP, I haven't been able to get any debugging
information yet and can't seem to find any error other than what comes
from FTP or IRC.
Have any other elf dip users had any problems or have any
problems? Any comments, and suggestions appreciated.
TIA
