I should add that given the other end of this is NetBSD I have also been following up discussion of this behaviour on their appropriate list too. That discussion can be found here: http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-net/2012/04/01/msg003203.html The currently last installment of which is here: http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-net/2012/04/03/msg003216.html Darren _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-net-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
