Hi,
it's me again. sock_create works now, but now I have problems to bind the
socket to the name I want it to have.
--- code ---
struct socket *guestsock;
struct sockaddr_un sun;
int error;
sock_create(PF_UNIX, SOCK_DGRAM, 0, &guestsock);
sun.sun_family = AF_UNIX;
strncpy (sun.sun_path, GUESTSOCKET, sizeof (GUESTSOCKET));
error = guestsock->ops->bind(guestsock,(struct sockaddr*)&sun,sizeof(sun));
if (error<0) {
perror("socket thread: can't bind guest socket");
}
--- /code ---
gives my a "socket thread: can't bind guest socket: Operation not permitted"
with a errno of -2, when GUESTSOCKET is /tmp/guestsocket. It seams to work
when I use \0guestsocket. But that seams to be a so called abstract name
and I don't know who to handle that. Could someone please help me?
Thanks for your answer,
Patrick "Petschge" Kilian
