[comp.sys.sun] Pgms that use NIT

pprindev%wellflt.UUCP@nisc.nyser.net (Philip Prindeville) (04/22/89)

I'm working on a problem that requires me to be able to send and receive
raw ethernet frames on a SUN 3/50.  I've used etherfind and read the
NIT(4P) man page, but the latter leaves a lot to be desired.  If you have
any examples that use this facility, please reply to me (NB: my mailer
does not generate correct addresses, use:

		nyser!wellflt!pprindev  [or]
		wellflt!pprindev@nisc.nyser.net )

Thanks,

-Philip

I have an arp server program (arpserv) that uses the SunOS 4.0 NIT
interface.  The code is available via anonymous ftp from s1.msi.umn.edu,
file "arpserv.shar".  Since the code runs under both 4.0 and 3.x it should
give a pretty good idea of what changed.
