I shouldn't have objected earlier on the basis it wasn't complete yet (updated), since it really has to be here for us to be able to work on. If you could just get ip_fw6.[ch] and ipfw6.[c8] in right now, I'll be happy. I'll certainly work on getting the two merged for 4.1+. Do you think you could add a BUGS section to ipfw6.4, something along the lines of "This version of IPFW was based upon an older codebase than what is in FreeBSD right now. Some features and changes made in IPFW are not in, yet."? > > Yoshinobu Inoue -- Brian Fundakowski Feldman \ FreeBSD: The Power to Serve! / green@FreeBSD.org `------------------------------' To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
