Wollman" Message-Id: <9602121735.AA23383@halloran-eldar.lcs.mit.edu> To: FreeBSD-Current Mailing List Subject: Anybody using netns? Sender: owner-current@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk Is there anybody out there using netns (aka XNS aka `options NS')? We would like to remove it from the distribution, as it has little practical value. We kept it for this long on the reasoning that, because IPX/SPX is close to XNS' IDP/SPP, it would help someone implement IPX compatiblity. Someone has now done so, and this last reason has gone away. Unless someone else is both currently using this code /and/ willing to maintain it for us (which includes at a minimum eliminating the kernel compilation warnings), it will be nuked in a day or so. Speak now or forever hold your peace! -GAWollman -- Garrett A.
