In the documentation (V4.0) for the t_optmgmt routine, the statement "Note Although other transport providers may support the t_optmgmt function, the Digital UNIX TCP transport provider does not. See the transport provider documentation for information about option management. See t_optmgmt(3) for more information." is made. The man page for t_optmgmt(3) has no references to any restrictions on its use. If t_optmgmt is unsupported, what supported alternatives are there for this? The goal is to set the equivalent of TCP_KEEPALIVE (from the xti_internet(7) man page). A similar question was asked in Note 5618.0 of the ALPHA_OSF_IFT notes file with response.

Thanks for the information and I have passed that on to my customer. I will submit the documentation change request to get an update to the Network Programming Guide changed to reflect this. |
