FreeBSD is an operating system, for pete's sake, not a local routing product. If you want 50mbs take a snapshop of the op/sys and customize it, but please, please don't adulterate the whole op/sys to get some questionable functionality. If you need that kind of throughput find yourself some nice multi-port ethernet cards and write yourself a driver, 'cause thats the only way you're going to do it without trashing lots of other stuff. dennis
