Thanks. The test that fail are, principally, tu03c and tu03d but they fail in interesting ways. It seems that on AIX the sun_path member of sockaddr_un is 1022 bytes, could you please verify this by checking in /sys/un.h and preferably also by checking that there is a line in include/net-snmp-config.h that reads #define SIZEOF_SOCKADDR_UN_SUN_PATH 1022 Now, it seems that our config reading routines have a line length maximum of 1024 bytes and that the overflow handling i less than graceful but this is still only a theory so I will need to check this further. The bug seems to appear in the intersection of these limits. /MF ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Better than sec?
