Hmm..

If io-net is recompiled against 6.4.0, then it going to looking for
libc.so.3, which,
I am sure going to be a problem on 6.2.1 system.

Maybe io-net/npm-qnet-l4_lite.so from 6.3.0 is a better candidate.

Hi Jianbo:
	The only problem with this is that you have to make sure that
the networking binaries that you use are all compatible with io-net.
You may well find that some 6.4 networking utilities are incompatible
with io-net.  In that case, just copy over the 6.3.2 binary.

	Robert.

I tried io-net/npm-qnet-compat from QNX 6.3.0 on the machine running QNX
6.4 pre-release version. Now two machines running QNX 6.2.1 and QNX 6.4
can communicate each other. Hopefully I shall have no problems for TDP.
Any other things that I should be aware of ? Thanks, Jianbo
