Maybe you are only processing the first one? Yes, my code does this. I also some debug output for the test "nlmsg_flags & NLM_F_MULTI", but it never evaluates to true. > I recommend using the libmnl library instead of the older > libnetlink.

Thank you for the tip, I will try this as it will make my code much cleaner. Btw, I hadnt paid attention the age of the package I used. However, upgrading to the latest available in the Debian repository (20120319) does not have an effect. -Kristian -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
