Might be a good idea for a sysctl.. e.g. net.inet.ip.fwd_bcast_tunnel to enable forwarding of broadcast packets across any point-to-point links whos local address lies on the broadcast subnet. If what you're really trying to solve is NBNS, use a WINS server. -Archie __________________________________________________________________________ Archie Cobbs * Packet Design * http://www.packetdesign.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
