Hello,
    I am running FreeBSD 4.5 on some machines for some TCP related 
experiments. When sending SYN packets, I observe that the SACK Permitted 
option isnt sent. Also there seems to be no sysctl interface to enable 
SACK in the GENERIC kernel.

   How do I enable SACK in FreeBSD 4.5 ?

Yours Sincerely,
Gokul Poduval
