If the bge's API allows it, you could setup a receive descriptor with a length of 14 bytes (size of ethernet header), and start the next descripter 2 bytes after it (at a 16 byte offset from the front of the mbuf). When the receive is done, just copy the 14 bytes. Drew To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
