Jordan recently mentioned "Wonderful World of Linux 2.4 (Second
Edition)" <http://features.linuxtoday.com/stories/8191.html>.

This article makes the statement "Linux is still the only operating
system completely compatible with the IPv4 specification", which is
further expanded in a followup article by <soren@leiden.org>:
<http://features.linuxtoday.com/talkback/29410.html>.

Does anyone know what Joe and Soren are talking about here?  I was
under the impression that BSD (probably 4.3BSD) was the Reference
Implementation for IPv4.  Where does FreeBSD differ from the relevant
RFCs?

Peter
