Hello, I successfully used Net::Packet under Windows XP (32-bit) earlier. Because Net::Packet is not supported any more, I have to migrate to Net::Frame under Windows 7 (64-bit). After installation of the Bundle::Net::Frame 1.02 via PPM, I always get following critical error messages from Net::Frame::Device : Net::Frame::Device: updateFromDefault: unable to get dnet - or - Net::Frame::Device: updateFromDev: unable to get dnet - or - Net::Frame::Device: updateFromTarget: unable to get dnet It could be an issue with Net::Libdnet module which function is called from _getDevWin32() in Net::Frame::Device (the error messages are shown above). Possibly, intf_get() does not work as expected for ethernet interfaces under Windows 7. If these are "linux-only" modules, OS dependency and restriction notes should be given in Net::Frame distribution for MSWin32 users. If Net::Frame framework should run also under MSWin32, this problem (bug) should be solved. Best regards, J. Bytschkow

Hi, This module is not supported under Win32 (nor Win64). Since Windows 10, you should be using the Linux subsystem under Windows if you wish to use network Perl modules. Regards,
