This patch allows the SNMP code to work with the FreeBSD stack as well as the OpenBSD stack. > c) A rationale for including the patch in the 2.0 final release. Currently the branch only supports SNMP with the OpenBSD stack. This is no longer the default stack for 2.0b1. FreeBSD should become the stack everyone uses, but if people want SNMP they are forced to use the old stack. This patch touches the two snmp packages only. It does have the risk of breaking the OpenBSD support for snmp :-( > d) The patch itself, or a URL to the patch in the ecos-patches list archive. cvs diff -D 2003-02-14 packages/net/snmp Also, see the thread starting at http://sources.redhat.com/ml/ecos-patches/2003-02/msg00177.html > I would like the eCos maintainers to then have a maximum period of 2 days to > debate before (hopefully) a consensus is reached.
