[OLSR-users] Little bug in 0.4.7 ??

Hello olsr users,

I'm updating the rpm file for version 0.4.7 but after compiling (environement is
Fedora Core 1 with gcc 3.3.2) the olsr startup script always return an error.

to test I just ran /usr/sbin/olsrd ; echo $? , and I got 1 (error)

After looking in the sources, in main.c at line 692 (in the /* daemon mode */),
I change exit(1) to exit(0) (like in version 0.4.4) and everything works now
without errors.  Is this change
correct ?

As I'm running Fedora Core 1, does other users get the same problem on others
distributions (Mandrake, Slackware
or Debian) ?

I also would like to ask is somebody is interrested to code with me (I'm a very
bad coder :-) a DNS puglin
for olsr ?

My idea is to send the hostname of the node inside the olsr packet, and then
forward it to a local dnscache.  Is this possible ?

Regards,

Gilles
