Raw Socket: Protocol Not Supported
OS Solaris 10, using Zones
I have one zone set up which houses HP Openview NNM 7.5
Inside of the application you should be able to right click on a node and do a traceroute or telnet to the node.
Neither works. Get error:
raw socket: Protocol not supported
Can anyone tell me if this is an OS issue or HP Openview issue?
Any assistance will be greatly appreciated!!!

This is known issue in zone. Please see http://developers.sun.com/solaris/articles/application_in_zone.html about socket function.
But if you really need traceroute in nnm, you can use /usr/sbin/traceroute.
Here's how:
manager@ov:~$ diff /root/old-NNM-IP.tbl $OV_REGISTRATION/C/ovip/NNM-IP.tbl
473c473
< -cmd ovtraceroute ";
> -cmd traceroute ";
You can always add something like "xterm -e telnet" instead of "not working" menu item in registration file. Please see "Creating and Using Registration Files" guide on http://docs.hp.com.
nice nnm-ing :)
