Reading the IP/TCP routing tables from memory (request)

[Bruce Pinn]

     Our site is currently running Wollongong's IP/TCP under Eunice.  Recently
I have been attempting to port the route daemon to our machine and have run
into a number of problems.  They are

	1.  How does one read the routing tables directly from the kernel
	    code?  /dev/kmem does not exist under Eunice and hence is not
	    available for reading.

	2.  I believe that the nlist function works off of the inet.stb
	    file.  Is this correct, or am I simply on a winding trail to
	    nowhere?

Does anyone (please) know the answer to these questions, or can provide
insite into the way Wollongong reads the incore tables (they must be
reading the `inet memory' for commands like netstat, route, etc).

				Thanks in advance!

p.s.  With a few minor exceptions Wollongong's IP/TCP code is really
      quite good!
