Sorry for delayed response, and sorry for doing this here (I should have talked about this in KAME team earlier, I think I have noted about rcmd API issues already to shin, before freebsd IPv6 commits start) I suggest to defer committing rsh/rlogin related items, as there are reference to libc functions which we do not have consensus even among *BSD (not to mention linux camp, or any of vendor UN*X which may have those interfaces) IMHO committing them causes more confusion. We do not really use rlogin/rsh these days, we can just use ssh. For realhostname2() I have no opinion as is freebsd only API (as I heard from shin). rcmd and bindresvport items are already committed, I think they shouldn't have been committed.... (for openssh port you can include bindresvport_af in "patches" directory) I would propose to back these out, like iruserok_af and bindresvport_af from the library. Items that would be deferred are rsh and rlogin related items, and those only (I believe). most of other IPv6 services can be put and enabled. What I'm trying to say is that we need to get consensus on these API functions amoung at least *BSDs, and we should not be putting those before that. I'm soliciting comments on IETF ipngwg mailing list so that I can get more comments. itojun To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
