Note to FreeBSD users of SKIP (ie, port security/skip):

The port has been updated to build SKIP as a KLD instead of an LKM.
This means that it's now compatible with FreeBSD 3.x ELF kernels.

The bad news is that it's no longer compatible with FreeBSD 2.2.x.
However, this is normal and is the case with most ports; ie, if you
want the 2.2.x version of the SKIP port you can always get it from
www.freebsd.org.

Also, although little of the SKIP code itself was changed in this
update, the new port has NOT been tested very much so I'd love
feedback from anyone willing to test it under 3.x.

Thanks,
-Archie
