[ace-users] SCTP not working

[Andy Stafford]

To my knowledge there is no implementation of SCTP on Windows, and if
there is I'm pretty sure ACE doesn't support it.  As for using SCTP
with Linux, the 2.6+ kernels include LKSCTP (Linux kernel SCTP)
implementation.  However, you still need to install LKSCTP user-space
header files which you can find for your distribution by searching for
lksctp.  Also, in your platform_macros.GNU file you need the following
line:

sctp=lksctp

Hope that helps,
Andy
