When attempting to run either screen or dtach, I get the error "socket: Address family not supported by protocol." Are other people having this problem, or am I doing something uniquely stupid?

Everyone should get this error working with sockets.

This error is down to the kernel not supporting ipv6. Compile applications without ipv6 support and you should not see this. If you are using a chroot gentoo - then simply set your use flags to include -ipv6.
Screen may not work on this box anyway - there do not seem to be the correct type of virtual terminals available at all. Compiling your own kernel for the box may solve both these issues though.

I am pretty sure that you will need CONFIG_UNIX in your kernel to make dtach (and screen) work
Plus there is no ipv6 use flag in dtach or screen ebuild to unset.

You can see dtach in action @ here

You can solve your problem in few steps...

1) install dropbear

2) download this attachment (http://dns323.kood.org/forum/p1394-2007 … html#p1394) and copy unix.o in /mnt/HD_a2/modules

3) add this in your fun_plug:
/sbin/insmod /mnt/HD_a2/modules/unix.o

now logging in with ssh you can use dtach

Yeah, I didn't know that unix.o will work. I might repack custom firmware because now we don't need to recompile kernel and this way some of custom firmware's bugs will go away.
