It seems to allow traffic *from* the broadcast address, rather than to it. Did you mean the opposit way around? That was sort of my reaction, too, upon re-reading the bug report. It seems to me that both directions are necessary. The nmbd needs to receive broadcasts from other SMB servers, as well as be able to transmit its own broadcasts to them. In short, both the bug description and the fix are incomplete. Bill To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
