It used to be you had to compile it in. What's interesting to me is that IPFW options are not in generic, and I didn't think "options" could be done in LKM's. What am I missing? 2) IPDIVERT is missing / doesn't work, so while my IPFW config seemed=20 to take/work natd did not work. If IPFW is just going to work having IPDIVERT just work seems like a good idea as well. 3) There seems to be no more LINT or other listing of all the options. Why? In particular I needed "options NETATALK" but couldn't remember the name and there was no file to quickly grep. Has the list of=20 options been moved somewhere else? 4) Due to the way the makefiles now work it seems impossible to build a new kernel after changing just "options" statements and install it without also rebuilding all the modules...which takes quite some time. This seems to be because it moves the whole directory out of the way in /boot. This seems a little suboptimal to me. --=20 Leo Bicknell - bicknell@ufp.org - CCIE 3440 PGP keys at http://www.ufp.org/~bicknell/ Read TMBG List - tmbg-list-request@tmbg.org, www.tmbg.org --Q68bSM7Ycu6FN28Q Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE/oWlFNh6mMG5yMTYRAqQEAKCAL7rgo3ZDD6iNvEeOzCtgVdhiDACeKpJX n1pQ2L+tflEpLS0GGCFg/ck= =8fXx -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Q68bSM7Ycu6FN28Q--
