(I'd prefer an interface which allowed the caller to find out the address of the peer who allegedly aborted, but that's not possible.) - -GAWollman -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.4 (FreeBSD) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE6galwI+eG6b7tlG4RAq6FAJ9l+TNMAh3zDaBv3bf/ClhAR9uyFQCfVMuc vFqdTRrdWeTdVpURBi4ufhA= =opkE -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
