Hello, thanks for your answer. Yep, the patch i've been using on 6 looks very much like pjd's = (http://people.freebsd.org/~pjd/patches/mijail5.patch=20 ). Are you using this Fbsd7-port, or do you have any idea if anyone =20 does/how much it have been tested? I have no need for IPv6 right now, so if nothing else, I'd be glad to =20= test the 7-port of pjd's to see if it works. That sounds kindof what I =20= thought to do so.. :) Thank you! -- Johan
