Lines: 23 Message-ID: <3205F2FC.167EB0E7@aristar.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: slip125.winc.com Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Mailer: Mozilla 3.0b5aGold (X11; I; FreeBSD 2.1.0-RELEASE i386) HI, all, I've been running dip for quite some time and it just occurred to me now to ask you folks about an error message I get all the time and what I can do about it. The message is something like "socket already exists". I occasionally have some goofy problems with running SLIP that I'd like to get straightened out, and I'm wondering if this could be part of my problem. I don't recall if this occurs all of the time or if it only happens after I kill dip off and then restart it. Wish I knew so I could give more info.
