- Applied Joel Coltoff's xconnect patch:
On both my host system and with mipsel-linux for my embedded systems
the function getservbyname() gives the port number already in host order.
In fact, this is how it was used by rdate in version 0.60.3. The snapshot
I have of the development tree from July 12, 2002 takes the port number
and stuffs it into htons() before it uses it. This causes bugs in rdate,
telnet and wget. This patch fixes that.
#49: I found one memory overflow and memory leak in "ln" applet.
Last patch reduced also 54 bytes. ;)
#50: I found bug in loginutils/Makefile.in.
New patch have also new function to libbb and
aplied this to applets and other cosmetic changes.
xconnect helper routine which does:
-address and port resolving
-tries to connect to all resolved addresses until connected
-uses getaddrinfo, so works for IPv6 too
This patch also ports rdate, telnet, and wget to use the new
xconnect function. Thanks Bart!
