>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> I sent my announcement of IPX for the FreeBSD distribution 5 days ago and I haven't received any feedback yet. I know you are all busy and maybe everyone thought someone else will look at it? :-) If I should mail somewhere else please tell me, but according to the handbook -hackers is the place. In case anyone missed my announcement, I placed the file in: ftp.FreeBSD.ORG/pub/FreeBSD/incoming/ipx-fbsd.tgz It supports ipx but not spx. There is diffs for ifconfig and netstat to understand ipx. The only device driver that I changed was if_ed, because that is the one we use here. <<<<<<<<<<<<<<< I modified netns for routing usage at the beginning of this year for inclusion in the 2.0-RELEASE source tree. It was a series of patches to be applied for IPX/SPX compatibility in the 2.0 kernel. I uploaded the changes as netipx.tar.z to a couple of archive sites and sent out an announcement as well; don't get discouraged. There just appears to be little interest in performing this kind of function. All of my work on the code patches stopped when there was no feed back. For those that are interested: I can send you a copy of the diffs relative to a 2.0-Release source tree... Mike Mitchell AMTECH Systems Corp 505-856-8000
