fedanet 0.0.71: reportedly works with OpenBSD

Mon May 11 14:00:00 2026 UTC

FEDAnet source tarball version 0.0.71 uploaded; it contains a minor fix that covers the (previously unknown to me) difference in the tun/tap facility API between FreeBSD and OpenBSD. Yes, they are different. Slightly but sufficient to be incompatible. The new version is reported to compile and run on OpenBSD. Thanks go to EVI for reporting the trouble and trying the fixed version (which involved a lot of work).

Another change since the last release is that logging modules are separated into a library, named loghorn. This is the first time the library gets published. However, this change is not visible to users who don't bother reading the code. I only publish this release because of the achieved compatibility with OpenBSD.

Let's wait for someone with a NetBSD machine :-)

404 Error

Gives an error 404 when you try to access this link (http://www.croco.net/software/loghorn) from the lib/loghorn/Makefile file.

Re: 404 Error

Yes, I know. I hope to create a page dedicated to the library in several days, but didn't do it yet.

UPD: fixed, enjoy.

Re: Re: 404 Error

It seems to be a typo: Take a loog at the headers though, they contain a lot of commentary.

Re: 404 Error

Yeah, I forgot one of the commands in the usual chain. Hope everything is okay now.
