The related source changes are in HEAD and RELENG_6, and were MFC'd to RELENG_5 about 12 months ago, just after the 5.4 fork. Therefore it would be good to get this change into FreeBSD 5.5 if it's not too late. >How-To-Repeat: N/A >Fix: --- ndisman.diff begins here --- Index: src/share/man/man4/man4.i386/ndis.4 =================================================================== RCS file: /usr/cvs/src/share/man/man4/man4.i386/ndis.4,v retrieving revision 1.9 diff -u -r1.9 ndis.4 --- src/share/man/man4/man4.i386/ndis.4 21 Dec 2004 01:09:34 -0000 1.9 +++ src/share/man/man4/man4.i386/ndis.4 13 May 2006 22:09:54 -0000 @@ -30,7 +30,7 @@ .\" .\" $FreeBSD: src/share/man/man4/man4.i386/ndis.4,v 1.9 2004/12/21 01:09:34 brueffer Exp $ .\" -.Dd December 10, 2003 +.Dd May 14, 2006 .Dt NDIS 4 i386 .Os .Sh NAME @@ -90,9 +90,8 @@ data such as device identifiers.
