Where are the drivers for modern linux kernels? The support page seem to have very old drivers (looking for RHEL support)

dgrp 1.9 does not want to compile on 2.6.32-220.17.1.el6.i686:

The latest driver candidate can be found here:

ftp://ftp1.digi.com/support/beta/linux/dgrp

Also, with this version of Red Hat, you will need to install the openssl development package.

Does this solve the IOCTL problem?
(Modern Kernels in the last few years no longer have IOCTL).

Also when I try and wget from the FTP site I get “permission Denied” !! :frowning:
