Hi!

I think you are seeing the same problem that I
have described in my posting  "Not receiving 
packets on Solaris, but no problems on Linux and

BSD".

I think what we both need is the Solaris/DLPI
equivalent to the BSD/BPF  BIOCIMMEDIATE ioctl.

Do you happen to know what is the Solaris/DLPI
equivalent to the BSD/BPF BIOCIMMEDIATE ioctl ?

Thanks!




In my situation, I wrote a program (arp-scan)
using libpcap on Linux, and it 
worked fine.  When I ported it to BSD I needed
to use the BIOCIMMEDIATE 
ioctl to avoid BPF buffering.  I'm now porting
it to Solaris and am not 
receiving packets, so I suspect that I need the
appropriate method to avoid 
buffering in DLPI.
