   I tried to write a simple test program for (rt)netlink, but I didn't
succeed I'm sorry to say.  Does anyone have one or know of one?
[alternative plan is to use kgdb to determine why my test program is
failing...]

I bet if you actually posted your test program, you'll get more
feedback...

I did think of that.  Oh well, it's at this URL, bugs and all.

http://www.xenotime.net/linux/ipv6/rtnl_test.c

It's a heavily modified version of a posting like so:
/* original name = testIPv6.c */
/* author:  amit.limaye@patni.com */

And I'll be looking at Herbert's traceroute function also.

Thanks,
