Bug #41432 for Ocsinventory-Agent: Do not use pack ('S n a4 x8',...)

Thu Dec 04 13:28:50 2008 SREZIC [...] cpan.org - Ticket created

Subject:

Do not use pack ('S n a4 x8',...)

It seems that in current versions of FreeBSD, at least on the amd64 architecture, the old style to pack the port and address for bind() etc. does not work anymore. That is, you cannot use pack ('S n a4 x8',...) like you did in lib/Ocsinventory/Agent/Option/Download.pm, but should rather use the pack_sockaddr_in function from Socket.pm. Regards, Slaven

Hum I'm a bit lost. Which part of the code do you speak about? Cheer, Gonéri
