I need to recompile the kernel so that I can increase the number of ppp and tun interfaces available. I have read the handbook section on creation a custom kernel at: http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html and do not have either of the items listed in the excerpt below: ------------------------------------------------------------ Note: If there is not a /usr/src/sys directory on your system, then the kernel source has not been installed. The easiest way to do this is by running /stand/sysinstall as root, choosing Configure, then Distributions, then src, then sys. ------------------------------------------------------------ I have searched for a tar file or package containing the kernel source with no luck. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks! Cullin To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
