X-BeenThere: freebsd-current@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: Discussions about the use of FreeBSD-current List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 02 Jun 2009 19:20:42 -0000 Up till Sunday in 8-current, and for a long time in general network.subr (part of the rc.d system) has emitted a warning that values of network_interfaces other than AUTO are deprecated. I removed that warning in HEAD Sunday, and there is no a discussion about whether or not it should be put back, and whether or not there is any need for the user to specify the list of network interfaces at all. If you use a value of network_interfaces other than AUTO please speak up so that we can make an intelligent decision about this issue. Thanks, Doug
