It's always better to don't run a demon if you don't have to. :) Talking about a "more work" - I don't think that someone avoiding small "after install" tuning like this should be taking care of any network besides his home one. ;) Anyway, for the last five years no version of OBSD (including 4.2) worked for me without tuning a kernel, so an extra line in a crontab is nothing. :) -- Best regards, Boris mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
