Comment 2 FieldySnuts 2011-09-01 19:05:58 UTC

I am also seeing this with manually installed vanilla kernel 2.6.39.3 on x86, with fprobe-1.1 (-r2 dies on me) and run manually:

fprobe -i eth0 localhost:12345

Or any other of a wide array of valid commands gives me:

bind(): Invalid argument

A workaround or fix would be nice.
