Cool! ++

One thought. I have encountered an (occasional) situation where using ioctl($client, 0x8004667e, 1); fails.

More reliable seems to be:

my $true = 1; ioctl($client, 0x8004667e, \$true);

The problem seems to be that under some, unspecified (and through my best efforts, untracable), circumstances, the 'system' (I haven't figured out what part of the system), attempts to write to the third parameter. And if that is a constant (or a reference to a constant, I used ioctl($client, 0x8004667e, \1); successfully for a while), then it cannot write to it and so it traps.

See ioctlsocket Function(windows) and notice that the third parameter is defined as being __inout. Whether passing a reference to a rw SV* gets correctly translated, I'm not sure, but it doesn't seem to harm.

Maybe that would 'fix' the problem with OpenSSH?

to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
