Perfectly valid question. My own datapoint is that I'm running bridging code and ipfw, but not vinum, and my machine stays up, modulo an mbuf leakage problem. (Note: I'm going to have a couple of weeks off from work for medical leave, but I just finished the 100Mbps backbone in my house, so maybe I can help track down the mbuf problem--and my lingering SB16 no sound problem.) -- Chris BeHanna Software Engineer (at yourfit.com) behanna@zbzoom.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
