It would be nice if one of these days, it would support link.local based IPv4 stateless autoconfiguration, and check for 192.168.0.1 and do the same in 192.168.0.x before failing over to link.local so that Windows gateway machines would "just work" when using Windows "Internet Connection Sharing". -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
