I did pkgrm of both ipf and ipfx, and rebooted. I still have /dev/ipf (symlink to /devices/pseudo/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:ipf and /etc/opt/ipf/ipf.conf. And me fragmented packet problem persists. How can I be sure that ipfilter has been completely removed in terms of the running kernel?

I've seen this same error (ELF error) with other software on solaris while

thought I had done that, but will try rebuilding. I assume I should pkgrm the two and reboot first though?

On the fragmented packets: What symptoms are you experiencing? I have seen
some strange NFS behaviour since the last kernel upgrade (112233-04) on
one server, it might be unrelated to packet fragmentation, but so far I'm
puzzled, I've thought of adding the "keep frags" to test but haven't done
it yet.


I can ssh to it, ping it, establishing a connection works just fine. When I try to transfer any data over ~1100 bytes to the machine, it just hangs. Web pages, ftp transfers, scp, cvs. I can transfer data off the machine though. The only way I can get data on it is to split the data into small chunks, I've found 100 byte chunks works best, and transfer the chunks individually.

I compiled and installed ipfilter 3.4.31 on Solaris 8 using GCC 3.2. I
opted to install as loadable kernel modules, as described in
INSTALL.SunOS, and have packages ipf and ipfx installed (`pkginfo | grep
ipf`). I rebooted (and an old problem with not being able to receive
fragmented packets has resurfaced, any change that's a result of the ipf
packages being installed?) and am unable to 'modload if_ipl.o' because
"can't load module: No such file or directory". I ran 'locate if_ipl.o'
(findutils package from sunfreeware.com) and it returned no results.
Running any of ipf, ipfs, or ipfstat returns "Cannot find ?ELF
Killed".

So after installing the two packages, I can't use them or receive
fragmented packets. When I had the fragmented packets problem before I
had my ISP set my port on their router to 100 Mb, full duplex, with no
auto-negotiation, and set the interface on the solaris box the same. My
ISP may have reverted their router, but it seems awfully co-incident
that the problem resurfaced when I rebooted after installing the packages.


Any comments/suggestions are appreciated.
