I see RFC 6951 on UDP encapsulation and understand there are situations where that would be needed. However, my replication processes do run as root. Just for fun, I started them as non-root and SCTP worked just fine. I didn't see any raw sockets in a ktrace of the processes. 76330 replicate CALL socket(PF_INET6,0x5<SOCK_SEQPACKET>,IPPROTO_SCTP) 76330 replicate RET socket 5 -- Doug _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-net-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
