ipfilter on QNX 6.2.1B...

Hi! I need some help. I tried to use ipfilter tool from the 3rd party
CD on my QNX Momentics 6.2.1B PE but it didn’t work. Previously I used the
same tool from the same CD on QNX Momentics 6.2.0 PE and it worked just
fine. What’s wrong?

TIA

Here is the detail:

Mephri,

I am also running QNX Momentics 6.2.1B PE and this works for me.

Can you load other dlls into io-net using this technique?

mount -T io-net npm-qnet.so

ls /dev/io-net/

en0 ip0 ip_en ipfilter0 ipv6_en qnet_en

Are you sure that the ipfilter.so is installed? It should be
in /lib/dll/.

ls -l /lib/dll/ipfil*

-rwxrwxr-x 1 327 120 77404 Jan 15 2003
/lib/dll/ipfilter-v4.so
-rwxrwxr-x 1 327 120 82780 Jan 15 2003
/lib/dll/ipfilter-v6.so
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root 120 14 Sep 18 09:48
/lib/dll/ipfilter.so → ipfilter-v6.so

Also, is /lib/dll in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH ?

env | grep LD_L

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.:/proc/boot:/lib:/usr/lib:/lib/dll:/usr/photon/lib:/usr/photon/dll:/opt/lib:/usr/local/lib

You would be more likely to get a timely response, if you
had posted this in a relevant group. The cafe group is for
non-technical, random conversation. Many developers don’t
bother to follow it, or do so only occasionally. This
question is more suited for one of the *.os or *.porting
groups (since it has to do with one of the packages on
the Unsupported CD)

I also encounter the same problem in one machine if 6.2.1B is upgraded from
previous vesion.
Tried to install 6.2.1B again directly, and the problem is gone!

Mephri,

mount -T io-net npm-qnet.so

ls /dev/io-net/

en0 ip0 ip_en ipfilter0 ipv6_en qnet_en

Yes…

Are you sure that the ipfilter.so is installed? It should be
in /lib/dll/.

ls -l /lib/dll/ipfil*

-rwxrwxr-x 1 327 120 77404 Jan 15 2003
/lib/dll/ipfilter-v4.so
-rwxrwxr-x 1 327 120 82780 Jan 15 2003
/lib/dll/ipfilter-v6.so
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root 120 14 Sep 18 09:48
/lib/dll/ipfilter.so → ipfilter-v6.so

Of course…

Also, is /lib/dll in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH ?

env | grep LD_L

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.:/proc/boot:/lib:/usr/lib:/lib/dll:/usr/photon/lib:/usr/pho

ton/dll:/opt/lib:/usr/local/lib


Sure…
This is why it confuses me. I used the same machine, same procedure. The
only difference is I’ve upgraded the OS from 6.2.0 to 6.2.1 then to 6.2.1B…

OK. Thanks for the advice. Actually I posted this before on one of openqnx
forum. But no responses yet…

So that’s the solution. Any explanation why this happens?
Thanks for the tip.

I really don’t know. Like other os, sometimes, its better to have a clean
installation than upgrades or patches. Keep in mind that ipflter is not
officially supported. Agree?

As mentioned at
http://www.openqnx.com/PNphpBB2-viewtopic-t1033-.html
I bet the QNX upgrade process failed to update the boot.

I did a fresh install of QNX 6.2.1 then applying the B patch (6.2.1B), but
it still didn’t work. FYI, I used ipfilter from 3rd party CD of QNX
Momentics 6.2.0. Could this be the source of the problem?

Yes - use the one from the QNX Online repository.
