Something wrong in QNX 4.24 Network

QNX USERS QNX2 and QNX4

Hello everyone, there are some trouble in my debug working. When I startup network by command one by one, it’s okay everything, but when I used a shell which contain these commands, the remote pc can not communicate with my QNX machine, what’s the reason? When I change the dofferent switch, may be okay, and how to explain this phenomena?

And thanks a lot.

this below is the command in shell:

slay -f ‘some processes’
Net &
Net.ether82557 -P &
/usr/ucb/Socket -L SERVER &
/usr/ucb/ifconfig en1 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up

Make sure inetd is running.

Yes of cause inetd is running and thanks.

the only diffferent is sometimes the network communication can not run normally when I use shell, but sometimes it is okay, and why?

try to put some sleep in between commands in your script.

yes I also think so, but I want to know the reason about it, could you tell me, dear noc.

Network drivers / Net process not in receive state before Socket is being started, well thats what i found.

Net &
Net.ether82557 -P &

while [ nettry -gt 0 ]; do
if [ “$(sin | grep -sc Net.*RECV)” -gt 1 ]; then
/usr/ucb/Socket -L SERVER &
break
fi
let nettry=nettry-1
sleep 1
done
/usr/ucb/ifconfig en1 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up

Hope that is of some use, not sure if a sleep is required between Net and the Network driver start up too.

opps might need nettry=10 before the while loop =))
