In my LAN I take heavy usage of IPv6 and one of NICs (vr driver) is not yet marked MP_SAFE. Is it safe for now to switch over to debug.mpsafenet=3D1 or should I wait until the locking of IPv6 is done? BTW. I am very willing to help testing... ;) best regards, Gordon --=20 Gordon Bergling http://www.0xFCE3.net/ PGP Fingerprint: 7732 9BB1 5013 AE8B E42C 28E0 93B9 D32B C76F 02A0 RIPE-HDL: MDTP-RIPE "There is no place like 127.0.0.0/8" --9jxsPFA5p3P2qPhR Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFBOEoOk7nTK8dvAqARAsteAKCPPVqSwGsb/RfZALrwPZjaho0GMgCfQnBY pjNbgiHp1tO3bYzN6+0aVDE= =jcS3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --9jxsPFA5p3P2qPhR--
