https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=200185 --- Comment #4 from Kristof Provost <kp@freebsd.org> --- (In reply to Kyle Evans from comment #2) Yuri makes excellent points w.r.t. the sysctl, and I agree that we should just get rid of it (in 13 now). I'm less sure about getting rid of PRIV_NET_TAP, because creating the interface is distinct from opening (and using) it. We may still want to express letting users use an existing interface without immediately allowing them to create new ones. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
