- alternively, another mishap that will cause this is the absence of a
- 'protocols'
- file... absolutely devestating if you are mounting NFS systems in your rc 8-)
-
- /etc/protocols (linked to /usr/etc/inet/protocols should have the following
- /etc/protocols
- # protocols - standard well defined IP protocols
- ip 0 # internet protcol, pseudo protocol number
- icmp 1 # internet control message protocol
- igmp 2 # internet group multicast protocol
- ggp 3 # gateway -> gateway protocol
- tcp 6 # transmission control protocol
- egp 8 # (forgotten but it's on our sun's)
- pup 12 # PARC universal packet protocol
- udp 17 # user datagram protocol
- idp 22 # Think this is internet datagram protocol?
- raw 255 # raw
-
- I beg to differ with the 0.8.0 distribution's line which says
- ggp 2
- but this isn't used yet (I think) so it shouldn't matter (just being purist)
