With SLIP being such a core service, and with it causing bugs in softupdates, I'd have thought it would be worth a few eyes glancing over it :) Cheers, Jon. -- Jonathan Perkin +44 (0)1225 867914 Netcraft Ltd, Bradford on Avon, UK - http://www.netcraft.com/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
