I have a small question to all you: i want to be able to use at most 8 instances of the following pseudo-devices at the same time: pseudo-device bpf 8 pseudo-device gif 8 pseudo-device vn 8 pseudo-device snp 8 after which ones of them do I need to put "8"? I assume that i might omit it after "gif" since it's an interface, and i can ifconfig it up any number of times i want, right? but what about the others? also, how aften might I get gziped a.outs to run? do I *really* need 'pseudo-device gzip' nowadays? of course, i am speaking about my custom kernel configuration file. thanks you all very much! -- eugene ____________________________________________________________ Новое на НГС: http://job.ngs.ru - Работа в Новосибирске http://ngs.ru/wm - Новосибирский WM-центр ____________________________________________________________ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
