While I think the page is probably well overdue a complete rewrite, this at least mentions a handful of features added to FreeBSD since September 1996. Also remove link to http://www.netcon.com/ who no longer seem to offer the software mentioned. I've left the Novell, Appletalk and PCNFS references in, even though I suspect they are not really important enough these days to mention here any more. Lastly, the "crypto" distro is no longer export restricted as of 2000. >How-To-Repeat: N/A >Fix: --- internet.diff begins here --- Index: www/en/internet.sgml =================================================================== RCS file: /home/dcvs/www/en/internet.sgml,v retrieving revision 1.38 diff -u -r1.38 internet.sgml --- www/en/internet.sgml 16 Feb 2007 08:12:34 -0000 1.38 +++ www/en/internet.sgml 10 Mar 2008 14:35:49 -0000 @@ -13,6 +13,9 @@ implementation for TCP/IP software, the 4.4 BSD TCP/IP protocol stack, thereby making it ideal for network applications and the Internet.
