ipxutils and ncpfs on Sparc64 platform



Has anyone ever had any luck running ipx_configure to set up the network
interface for netware connectivity?

Here's the message I get when I do:

[root@localhost etc]# insmod ipx
Using /lib/modules/2.4.20-2.3sparc/kernel/net/ipx/ipx.o
[root@localhost etc]# insmod ncpfs
Using /lib/modules/2.4.20-2.3sparc/kernel/fs/ncpfs/ncpfs.o
[root@localhost etc]# ipx_configure --auto_interface=on --auto_primary=on
ipx_configure: ioctl: Invalid argument
[root@localhost etc]#

And then, when I do a dmesg, the last line is:

sys32_ioctl(ipx_configure:1099): Unknown cmd fd(3) cmd(000089e0)
arg(effff9df)

This works without any problems on sparc32 machines (SS5).

Are there any workarounds or patches I need to apply to make this work?

Thanks all,
Roger Mialkowski
