GDLC
Has anyone installed a GDLC? specifically a dlc8023? what do I need to do to access this device? The code: llfd = open("/dev/dlc8023/ent0",O_RDWR) works fine. But the later code: write(llfd, (void *)&lllbuff, 100) < 0) fails with an invalid argument error. Am I opening it... -
Config ethernet to be TCP/IP and IEEE 802.3 (et0)
What does it mean by network number when I try to ifconfig with the XNS? -
Determining MAC address from within a program
I haven't tried it yet. But any additional information would be great. -
passing file pointers
If you open a file within a particular task and pass the file pointer to another task, can the second task read from the file pointer? or is access limited to the task that opens the file? Thanks! -
Determining MAC address from within a program
We have an old home-grown system that still communicates IEEE 802.3. It needs to know our mac address so it can respond to us correctly. so I need to be able to retrieve that information while processing so it can be relayed to the older system. -

Sorry I meant I am NOT very familiar. -
Config ethernet to be TCP/IP and IEEE 802.3 (et0)
I'm sorry but I am very familiar with setting up link level networking but I must support it for communication to some older processors. I want to make sure I understand correctly.<br><br>I need to use smit and assign the IP address of the en0 interface to the et0 interface? That IP will then be... -
Determining MAC address from within a program
I need to obtain my MAC address from within a C program running on AIX. I know I can get the information from the shell using the 'netstat -i' or 'lscfg -vl ent0' commands. But how do I use one of those commands or another command within my code?<br><br>Thanks!<br>TLL -
