When I try to run the ident daemon (pident) on build 62, it complains: Apr 29 11:24:09 wasat in.identd[12208]: [ID 950913 daemon.error] getbuf: can't get needed symbols
It's looking for the kernel symbols "ipcl_conn_fanout" and "ipcl_conn_fanout_size". These are no longer global variables. The ident daemon knows the remote end of a TCP connection, but needs to find the local endpoint of that connection, in order to identify the UID of the local process. Is there an official way to do this? Utilities like `lsof' have a similar requirement. I don't think that `pfiles' has this ability. `netstat' seems to use the MIB interface to list TCP connections. Could that be used by the ident daemon? This message posted from opensolaris.org
