I think NetBSD may have a more general solution to the problem of handling the emulation of ALLMULTI on hardware which doesn't support it (such as the PRISM2 wireless cards). Discussion of M_PROMISC (new mbuf flag) here: http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-net/2003/03/19/0001.html Perhaps M_PROMISC is a better way of flagging an incoming mbuf as not being for us when running in IFF_PPROMISC? Or an mbuf tag? Ideas? BMS
