Operating system: FreeBSD 4 / Linux Kernel 2.2.16
PHP version: 4.0.3pl1
PHP Bug Type: *Network Functions
Bug description: socket() always fails with an "Unknown error"
Something like
if ( ($iSockFD = socket (AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM,0) ) != 0) {
print "Call to socket() failed: reason: " . strerror ($iSockFD) . "\n";
exit();
}
That results in an "Unknown error 4294967293" message from strerror() in Linux kernel
2.2.16.. A "Unknown error: -3" in FreeBSD 4.0 -- no matter what user I am, this error
occurs on both operating systems..
