Fellows,

I am writing a network driver for 2.4.10 kernel on ARM Integrator. It 
works almost properly by now(normal telnet, ftp etc works). Now we are 
tring to do some tests. It seems it refuse to response to the SNAP 
frame. We are pretty sure the hardware received it and passed it to the 
driver, the driver then passed it to the kernel. But the problem is the 
kernel won't reponse to it.

Is this a issue for the network setting of the running Linux box or some 
thing else? Does SNAP frame work by default or is there some thing need 
to be done at the driver level? Please help.

Thanks,

David

SNAP and IPX over SNAP were working last time I checked. IP over SNAP is
not supported unless someone added it without me noticing

Hi, Alan,

Thanks for the response. I believe the IPX support(therefore SNAP) can 
be enable with suitable options being enable when compiling the kernel. 
Is it true for ARM porting? Can you point me to the proper place for a 
usable IPX configuration tool?

Thanks,
