[net.bugs.4bsd] using route

gds@mit-eddie.MIT.EDU (Greg Skinner) (03/05/86)

I am running 4.2bsd with the BBN kernel.  I have the problem whenever
I use route(8) to delete a routing table entry to a host (interface)
the command starts to execute and then the machine hangs.  I have
heard that the fix is out for 4.3, I was wondering if I could get the
fixes in the new release, or if not, if someone understands the
problem and can tell me what needs to be fixed.  Also, I was wondering
if they knew if this problem shows up on suns.

Thanks in advance.  I'd appreciate as quick a response as possible,
it will help my project greatly.

      The whole routing/multiple interface/point to point link code is such
a mess in 4.2BSD that it is better to go to 4.3BSD than to try to fix it
incrementally.
