I am using 5.2.1-RELEASE-p3 and in the GENERIC configuration file of the kernel in /usr/src/sys/i386/conf there is the following line: "device bpf # Berkeley packet filter" Though, in the FreeBSD handbook it says: "pseudo-device bpf # Berkeley packet filter" which is suitable only for 4.x kernels In 5.x systems it should be "device" so the handbook should be updated. thanks __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
