Mario Illgen stands accused of saying: > is there any description about this device?? Or am I right that this > is not an interface which does IP-in-IP-tunneling?? That's correct, although it would not be difficult to use it for that. (In fact, a friend will be writing just such a tool shortly.) Look at it as a network interface plugged into the back of a pty; packets sent out the interface are read by the process on the pty, packets written to the pty are received by the kernel from the interface. > Mario Illgen, TU Chemnitz-Zwickau, Fakultaet fuer Informatik -- ]] Mike Smith, Software Engineer msmith@atrad.adelaide.edu.au [[ ]] Genesis Software genesis@atrad.adelaide.edu.au [[ ]] High-speed data acquisition and [[ ]] realtime instrument control (ph/fax) +61-8-267-3039 [[ ]] My car has "demand start" - Terry Lambert [[
