Warning: this freezed the system immediately [all network connectivity broke, and I had to do a quick reset]. Maybe I should have set it up at reboot before the system was in a 'bad' shape.. Speaking of 6to4, if_stf.c does not support setting the MTU, because there's no ioctl handler for it. It wouldn't IMHO hurt to be able to raise it from the glued-in default of 1280.. -- Pekka Savola "You each name yourselves king, yet the Netcore Oy kingdom bleeds." Systems. Networks.
