site_archiver@lists.apple.com Delivered-To: darwin-dev@lists.apple.com I've been messing with Darwinports to provide more modern versions of some functions under Mac OS X.2.x, ie. Jaguar. I managed to get BIND9 running but not without a few "loose ends". In particular, it seems that in named, version 9.3.1, an fcntl call to make /dev/random access for named non-blocking, fails. As near as I can tell, this is because Darwin<7 does not have any support for fcntl in the /dev/random code. Perhaps someone who knows what what they're doing with all this stuff could verify this, or not? Perhaps the same or similar someone(s) could advise whether this is a real problem or a basically ignorable information message (it doesn't keep named from running or doing it's basic work as near as I can tell from some small amount of testing)? if it is a problem, would it be a major problem to fit a more modern /dev/random onto an existing Mac OS X.2.x? Perhaps using mknod? -- Walter M.
