"netstat -i" prints dropped output packets iff you also use "-d". Starting with r199803 on 2009-11-25, "netstat -i" prints dropped input packets regardless of the "-d" flags. That is a PoLS violation, IMHO. I think that the "-d" flag should control printing of dropped input packets as well as dropped output packets.
OTOH, this behavior has been around for more than 4 years, and some scripts may rely on it. At the very least, the man page should be updated to reflect r199803. What do you think? Does the likelihood of hardcoded scripts preclude fixing this bug? -Alan _______________________________________________ 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"
