Title Differences between the Net.fd from QNX4.22 and the Net.fd from QNX4.23
Ref. No. QNX.000009746
Category(ies) Network
Issue When we try to connect QNX4.22 to QNX4.23 using Net.fd, we can't get it to run.  'netinfo' reports error 772.  However, we are able to connect two QNX4.22 computers together and also two QNX4.23 computers.  Is Net.fd from QNX4.23 compatible with Net.fd of QNX4.22? 

Solution The 4.23 Net.fd uses different error checking.  To get 4.23 to talk to a 4.22 client, pass the '-C' option to the 4.23 Net.fd.  This will tell it to use checksum error checking (4.22) instead of crc error checking (4.23).
