[LARTC] Install Question

[Justin Owens <justin@commtech.ie>]

Sorry for asking such basic questions but I haven't used iproute or htb
before.
I am using RedHat 7.1 (2.4 kernel) and I want to use HTB3.3 and
iproute2-2.4.7

Before I make and install iproute do I need to do something with the HTB
files...I can't find any docs on this

Would appreciate it if someone could give me a few pointers, or point me to
a doc...there's very little in the LARC Howto.

Thanks in advance

Justin Owens

I have also managed to solve it in another way..
Here is how ...



Solution 1:

Well I have managed to fix the compile error on a kernel 2.4.x

If we have a look at the file, /usr/src/linux/include/linux/if_ether.h 
that you get from the different kernels, we notice a change.

On 2.2.x kernel...
#define ETH_P_ECHO      0x0200          /* Ethernet Echo packet         */

On 2.4.x kernel...
#define ETH_P_PUP       0x0200          /* Xerox PUP packet             */



Q: How to fix it ?
 In the directory /lib of the source from the iproute2 tarball,
   is a file called, 'll_proto.c'
 In the file, there is an entry   '__PF(ECHO,echo)' on line 36.

A: Remove this line, and try to compile it again.
