If you have too many packet filters (either unused or in use) will it
cause your network to stop working? :)  I have a P-100 here on my desk
with an old SMC Ultra, and if I put in more than 16 bpfs, the card simply
doesn't work.

Alternatively, can someone tell me how to eke more users out of the CAP
package?  Currently, I'm dying at about four. 

Marc.
