| Subject: | unparseable line errors |
Hello,
I was getting "unparseable line" errors periodically. Looking at the lines I noticed that tm_when is set to 1AD7F29ABCA which is apparently equivalent to -1 (see http://lists.openwall.net/netdev/2008/06/01/8). I fixed regular expression for tm_when to accept this value (see attached patch) and it solved the problem for me. Not sure how justified it is to return -1 for all [\dA-F]{11} values though.
