That should work OK. Just recompile a kernel with that change and see what happens. Basically that's what I did when testing that under -current. Then check that netstat and friends still work correctly, and recompile them if they don't. This wasn't needed under 3.x and -current but IIRC the way they access the kernel data structures has changed with respect to 2.x. -- Pierre Beyssac pb@enst.fr To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
