Hmm, dumb question for the day - where are things like "log_in_vain"
documented. - And don't anyone say "in /etc/defaults/rc.conf"!
If there is a manpage, I sure as hell haven't found it!

Looks like I'm volunteering to write a manpage for the net.inet
sysctls - or does one exist? - I sure as hell can't find it!

A kernel level plug gateway would be quite a funky thing though. :-)
