[ no need to cc me ] Hello, I'm running -current. There's some Linux code in plex86 (http://plex86.sf.net/) that does something like fdTunTap = open("/dev/net/tun", O_RDWR); // IFF_TAP is for Ethernet frames. // IFF_TUN is for IP. // IFF_NO_PI is for not receiving extra meta packet information. ifr.ifr_flags = IFF_TAP | IFF_NO_PI; err = ioctl(fdTunTap, TUNSETIFF, (void *) &ifr); Is this roughly equivalent to fdTunTap = open("/dev/tap", O_RDWR); ? IFF_NO_PI seems to be equivalent to FreeBSD's tun(4)'s TUNSLMODE | TUNSIFHEAD. Thanks, Faried. -- The Great GNU has arrived, infidels, behold his wrath !
