I forgot credit where credit is due. it was jsing@ who did the work you should have done, finding out what actually causes the crash. a null pointer deref in case of a ICMPv6 header in an IPv4 packet. it was jsing@ who went further and found the spot in the code misbehaving in that case. And it was him who fixed it. With a little input from me, but he did all the work. The work you should have done, at least partially. You did nothing but whining, as usual. -- Henning Brauer, h...@bsws.de, henn...@openbsd.org BS Web Services, http://bsws.de Full-Service ISP - Secure Hosting, Mail and DNS Services Dedicated Servers, Rootservers, Application Hosting - Hamburg & Amsterdam
