It's unlikely athctrl will be commited because we're attempting to phase those sorts of programs out in favor of a modular ifconfig. It's not clear to me if we the support or not at this point. That would be a question for Sam, but he's on vacation at the moment. -- Brooks --=20 Any statement of the form "X is the one, true Y" is FALSE.
