Sorry, I do not believe that is the case. I have a 8506-4LP and if I click on Management -> Scheduling in the 3dm web interface it says (0x0C:0x0017): Scheduling is not supported on this controller model However you might be able to cheat using the tw_cli port to run the schedules out of cron rather than native on the card _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
