To: questions@freebsd.org Date: Fri, 10 May 1996 11:47:41 -0700 (PDT) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL16 (25)] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk 'Lo. Is there a program for FreeBSD that will selectively eat incoming packets (i.e. receive them, but just throw them away)? The blurb in the LINT config file says that the discard device eats *all* packets, but that's not what I want. If the discard device can be configured for selective packet snarfing, I'd love to know how.
