The manual is too vague on the DNS proxy.
I am running on Centos. On the Centos list I was told to gte
DJB's source and install that to get daemontools.
I updated the manual a bit. You can run the dnsproxy as a
stand-alone application. The djb stuff is optional (to speed up
the dnsproxy).
Do you mean the manual is updated on infrahip.hiit.fi or in the
hipl--userspace--2.6/doc directory?
Both.
If the later, I can't open either the index.html or the HOWTO.xml.
I get errors on both.
Seems to work fine at least for me:
mkomu@relay:~/projects/hipl--userspace--2.6/doc$ make
xmlto -o howto-html html HOWTO.xml
I assume this was line rapped...
When I try this I get an error:
make: *** No rule to make target `xmlto`. Stop.
yum install xmlto
(This requirement is mentioned in chapter two of manual)
And I had it installed. Just 'tried again', and got 'nothing to do'.
Well I have it built now.
But what, in more detail, do I do here. Once I get the tools
installed (itself a challenge), what is involved in the DNSproxy
script working with, for now, /etc/hosts and /etc/hip/hosts?
The basic way to run it is like this:
sudo dnsproxy
Since I am logged in as root, I tried this without sudo, and got
command not found. Located it, kind of, at /usr/local/sbin/dnsproxy.py

Sorry, the magic wrapper for python is called "dnshipproxy" as the
manual says. I didn't recall the right name.
Tried this. Then had to locate dnsshipproxy as it is not on the path.
Once I did it failed.
Where was it?
I was not clear. Look at the two directories I show above. That is where
it is. But I did not change to either directory, but rather as root, ran
them from /root.
Can you run it directly from tools directory?
Yes, and that did the trick.
Tried both the copy in
/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/hipl-1.0.4/tools/dnsproxy (there due to running
make rpm?) and /root/hipl--userspace--2.6/tools and got the error:
python: can't open file `dnsproxy.py`: [Errno 2] No such file or
directory
Well, for me "make install" puts things into their right places:
And as I indicated above, seems I have to be in the tools directory to
run dnshipproxy. Just one more thing to note for now.
So I am now going to redo much of my testing with dnshipproxy rather
than hipconf run normal, while I wait for your figuring out the kernel
build magic!
