This id is then stored into a 16 bit field in packets it sends out, and when it receives replies it compares the received id with the int "id" to determine if the packet should be discarded or not. If getpid() returns a pid higher than 65535, all packets are discarded. I fixed it with a patch like this: diff --git a/clockdiff.c b/clockdiff.c index 00b8d33..8a03419 100644 --- a/clockdiff.c +++ b/clockdiff.c @@ -95,7 +95,7 @@ int in_cksum(u_short *addr, int len) int interactive = 0; -int id; +u_int16_t id; int sock; int sock_raw; struct sockaddr_in server; ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.10 Package: iputils-clockdiff 3:20100418-2ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.35-32.66-generic 2.6.35.14 Uname: Linux 2.6.35-32-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Architecture: amd64 Date: Fri Mar 16 22:32:57 2012 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.10 "Maverick Meerkat" - Release amd64 (20101007) ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, user) LANG=en_US.utf8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: iputils To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/iputils/+bug/957449/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
