Thanks for the reply! I'm running 11.1 Release. The fix is not there yet at least. I read the whole bug report and understood that he was involved on both sides. My question was a bit more general about the changes coming from FreeNAS to FreeBSD and the other way around. Is there a way for me to see when this particular change, or some other change that I might be interested about in the future will be available in FreeBSD release, stable or current?
