Hi Farhan,

the kernel provides 'only' a kernel module. For building programs you also need header
files and most likely a library providing some functions from the socketAPI. These
are included in LKSCTP besides documentation and test programs.

Best regards
Michael

Hi,

When I was building kernel 2.6, I realized that it has support for SCTP. When the kernel already has support for SCTP, what is the need for LKSCTP? Can someone explain? Or maybe I should be directing this question to the lksctp mailing list I guess....


Thanks,
Farhan.
