Nice! Good that you found the sysctl's to substitute the SIOCGIFDATA ioctl.= I=20 haven't yet had time to look at it, but that seems to close bin/73877 [1], = or=20 is there any functionality that you are missing?

Very nice, would you mind to turn it into a proper port? Just drop me a=20 tarball if you don't have somewhere to host it. I don't know if ifstated=20 should go into the base-system. It looks like it should be able to run as a= =20 port just fine? > The ifstated.conf.patch is basically the same as OpenBSD's, except for a > ping command line option.

Again, thanks a lot! Everybody, please help testing.
