Is this func correct?
by Zheng Yuan {ZYUAN1} 08 Jan '01

Hi, All Maybe i totally miss the point, is this func correct: int password_same(struct password_item *old, struct password_item *new) { if (old == new) return 1; if ((!old) || (!new)) return 0; return ((old->from == new->from) && (old->to == new->to) && (old->passive == new->passive) && password_same(old, new)); } or the last line should be return ((old->from == new->from) && (old->to == new->to) && (old->passive == new->passive) && password_same(old->next, new->next)); or compare old->password with new->password

Parse error with OSPF area stmt?
by James A. Crippen 06 Jan '01

06 Jan '01

I'm getting consistent parse errors from bird while trying to configure ospf. I say something akin to the following: protocol ospf { ... area 0.0.0.0 { ... }; } And I've tried variations like "area 0 {" and "area {", but no luck with anything. I always get a parse error from bird on that particular line. I took a halfhearted look at the source and couldn't find anything in particular. Help! And yes, I know that areas are somewhat borken, that you can't use more than one. I'm not trying to, I'm just trying to follow the documentation which says to list an area section and put my chosen interfaces inside of it. Thanks 'james -- James A.

OSPF "bad hello packet"
by James A. Crippen 06 Jan '01

06 Jan '01

I'm getting "bad hello packet from 10.1.1.23 received: bad netmask 255.255.255.0" even though there's really nothing wrong with this netmask (I'm using 10.1.1.0/24 and 10.2.2.0/24 for some testing). Is there any reason why ospf thinks this is a bad netmask? Should I just ignore it? Thanks! 'james -- James A. Crippen <james(a)unlambda.com> ,-./-.

Is this a typo
by Zheng Yuan {ZYUAN1} 04 Jan '01

04 Jan '01

Line 64 in CLI.c if (!(o = c->tx_write) || o->wpos + size > o->end) isnt that should be if (!(o == c->tx_write) || o->wpos + size > o->end) BTW, is there anyone who is also interested in studying the source code? I would be very interested if we could form a study group or something else? Thanx!

Stop forking
by James A. Crippen 02 Jan '01

Where should I look to find the code that forks bird into the background on startup? I don't want it to fork. Instead I want to fork it into the background myself from another program.

Not exactly sure what to expect though, and I haven't had the time to examine the source closely for what I want. Right now I'm having problems with RIP, but I'm betting that it's my fault and I've misconfigured things again. Maybe I should actually sit down and RTFM... :) If I do find what I want and need to hack on the code I'll be sure to send a patch to the list. 'james -- James A.

Broadcasts not broadcasting?
by James A. Crippen 30 Dec '00

30 Dec '00

I'm using bird 1.0.4 on an Intel Linux box (homemade distro). I've configured bird to do RIP broadcast. I then plugged the system into my local network and into a separate network and did the same with my desktop system. I configured bird to dump lots of debug info to the syslog, and I see it say that it broadcasts its routing table to both eth0 and eth1, but watching either network shows me absolutely no traffic from either interface. I pinged back and forth to be sure, and I can see the pings and the associated ARP traffic quite clearly, but no RIP broadcasts at all. The configuration is as simple as possible. From what I can tell from the manual I've got everything necessary to make RIP run, but it doesn't want to share its routes with anyone. Any ideas about what might be malfunctioning? Below is the configuration file I'm using. ---8<--- cut here ---8<--- log syslog all; debug protocols all; protocol direct { interface "*"; } protocol kernel { learn yes; persist no; scan time 20; import all; export all; } protocol device { scan time 10; } protocol static { debug all; } protocol rip { debug all; honor always; authentication none; interface "*" { mode broadcast; }; } -- James A.

bird 1.0.4: Segmentation fault
by Michael Renzmann 29 Dec '00

29 Dec '00

Hi all. I just detected a segmentation fault. It is reproducable by doing the following: 1. start bird with "bird -c /etc/bird/bird.conf -d" on one console. it prints: --- cut --- exporting (rip) exporting (rip) --- cut --- 2. type "killall bird" on another console 3. bird on first console prints: --- cut --- exporting (rip) Segmentation fault --- cut --- That "exporting (rip)" has been added by configuration in cases it exports a route out of the kernel table to rip protocol (see configuration file for that, which has been attached to my mail). I compiled bird 1.0.4 (stable tarball from bird.network.cz) using 2.95.2. ./configure was started with "--with-protocols=rip,static" afair. Kernel is a patched 2.2.17, I added the crypto10 and the stealth patches to it. My machine is an Intel Celeron 466 running with 64 Megs RAM. Distribution is Debian 2.2. The two routes that exist on the system are: 192.168.1.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.1.210 default via 192.168.1.30 dev eth0 What should I do to track down the bug? Bye, Mike
